“Recently, a faculty member discovered, upon entering a classroom, that there was a large amount of yellow chalk dust on the blackboard tray and other surfaces. Could we find a way to prevent this in the future? It would help if faculty members would remember to use the dustless chalk.”
Written response from Faculty Association President, Dr. Gordon Rakita:
When possible, I encourage all faculty who use traditional chalk boards to use the dustless chalk out of courtesy to their colleagues. I additionally urge departments to stock dustless chalk for faculty when appropriate and possible.
