Don\u2019t assume we\u2019ve thought of everything. Don\u2019t assume we know of a problem in a particular lab either. There have been cases where all the consultants knew of a problem and assumed the tech staff had been told, but never actually were. As a rule, it is better to get repeat reports than get no reports at all. Your feedback is essential to the operation and improvement of the labs and libraries. No suggestion is too small or too big. Also, if you hear students or instructors complaining\/praising something, let us know! All too often people don\u2019t take the extra step to email their complaints to help@ucsc.edu.
