Lockers

The Student Affairs Office is responsible for assigning lockers to all DMD and Advanced Standing students.

How do I get a Locker?

Lockers are assigned automatically and students are informed of their assignment via email. Students are responsible for providing their own locks.

DMD-1 Students Students will share locker with their classmates Lockers are located on the 4th floor of the medical school Locker assignments will be emailed during Orientation Week As soon as locker assignments are received, students should contact their locker partner and place a lock on their locker to avoid illegal occupancy by other students Students will occupy these lockers until they leave for APEX (late May)	DMD-2 Students  Lockers are located in the SLC Lockers have a combination lock built in, so students do not need to purchase a lock Locker assignments and combinations will be emailed to students in August
DMD-3 Students  Lockers are located in the basement of the dental school (under the café) Students will be assigned TWO lockers and will need TWO locks Locker assignments will be emailed in July or August	DMD-4 Students  Students will keep their lockers assigned to them in the third year, unless they receive a locker from the Locker Lottery (see below)
AS-1 Students  Lockers are located in the basement of the dental school (near Supply Store) Students will have to purchase a lock with a 3-inch shackle Locker assignments will be emailed during Orientation Week	AS-2 Students  Lockers are located in the basement of the dental school (under the café) Students will be assigned TWO lockers and will need TWO locks Locker assignments will be emailed in July or August AS-2 students are eligible for the Locker Lottery (see below)

Students who illegally occupy lockers that have not been assigned to them will be in violation of GSDM’s Student Code of Conduct and will be required to meet with the assistant dean of students. They may also be brought before the Judicial Board, as this is an issue of ethics and professionalism, and will lose their spot in the Locker Lottery.

If there is a problem or concern with a locker, please contact Amy Nelson at 617-638-8411.

Locker Lottery

• Lottery is for lockers located on the 3rd, 6th, and 7th floors of the dental school. Students will receive ONE small model locker and ONE regular size locker. Students who received a lottery locker will forfeit their previous locker assignment, and must relocate to their lottery locker in a timely manner.

Locker Sign-Out Procedure

Starting April 1, DMD-4 and AS-2 students who have been completely signed out of their clinicals by their professor will be able to complete the locker sign-out procedure.
The Student Affairs Office will contact students via email when they are able to schedule their sign-out session.
Prior to your scheduled appointment, students must complete the following:

1. Clean out and lock your locker.
2. Log in to SPS and verify that you have been signed out of your clinicals.

• The Student Affairs Office will NOT be able to sign you out of your locker until your professor enters the information in SPS (which may take a few days).
• If you arrive for your appointment and are not signed out in SPS, you will have to reschedule your sign-out session.
• A member of the Student Affairs Office staff will accompany each student to their locker and will inspect the locker.
• If the locker is cleaned out and the student has been signed out of all clinicals, the student will return to the Student Affairs Office and the sign-out session will be completed electronically.
• If your locker is not cleaned out, you will NOT be signed out and will have to reschedule your appointment.
