Classroom Services provides the use of equipment technologies to support Medical Center activities such as classes, meetings, and sponsored programs through the Equipment Loan Service.
Equipment Loan Policies and Procedures
The Loan Service is available to all Medical Center faculty, staff and authorized students. Equipment is available for loan Monday through Friday, between the hours of 7:00 am and 5:00 pm from the Classroom Services office in Ross Hall 430.
A valid GWorld ID card is required for all equipment loan transactions, and equipment may not be secured for personal use or loaned to any non-GWSMHS individuals, other campus affiliates and organizations, institutions, or agencies.
All equipment is reserved on a first come, first served basis. All requests for equipment must be received 48 hours (2 working days) in advance of the planned activity. Advanced reservations are strongly recommended to ensure equipment availability.
To request equipment, please fill out the Google form, and email rosshallclass@gwu.edu to confirm submission.
Clients must reserve equipment only for the actual scheduled hours of the class, meeting, or program. All equipment must be returned in timely manner in an effort to accommodate as many requests as possible. All equipment must be returned by 5:00 pm on the day it was loaned out.
Please Note: Equipment left outside of the office door is unacceptable.
