Rental Services And Laboratory Equipment
As affiliated with the science and engineering faculty at York University, the Bethune College Council recognizes the importance of laboratory equipment for its constituents. With the financial strain that these equipment pieces may have on individuals, the council has decided to provide rentals to laboratory coats and goggles for all students that require it.
Simply head over to the Bethune College Council office (BC 122) where you may rent the goggles and coats in varying sizes (from XS-XL). Bring your student card or a piece of ID for the council to hold onto during your laboratory time to ensure proper liability on both ends. Please note that laboratory equipment needs to be picked up within an hour of the laboratory scheduled start time and dropped off within an hour after the laboratory scheduled end time. Only 1 rental will be provided per student per week to be able to provide this opportunity for everyone!
Bethune College Council is also proud to offer rentals of popular board games and video games to any students wishing to have some fun in between their classes!
