Co-Lab Fall 2021

Welcome back to the Co-Lab


Welcome back to Duke, everybody! We are so happy you are here for a new semester full of building, making, and learning opportunities!! I hear you, it's only the first week you say, but it's never too early to get started. So tell your friends, your mother, and your favorite uncle, and let's git back into it! (I'm kidding on the mother and uncle part... though you can tell them too, if you like)

Roots


I know you have missed them! Our program will begin with our first class next Monday and will continue throughout the semester. With 88 workshops (and more coming), there should be something for everybody. We've got a variety of both in person and online workshops this semester, so regardless of your style, we've got you covered. As you know some classes fill up fast, and some only have a few spots, so don't waste any time and click here to see the entire schedule and sign up! As  usual, all our workshops are free to all in the Duke Community!

Studios


Maybe you already know all about our studios, or maybe you've never been there because... well, you know. Either way, we hope you will take advantage of them - include a few pieces of new equipment - this year!
If it's your first time (or it's been too long a time for you to remember), here is a video on how to find our studios at the TEC and the Ruby! I keep hearing that we are hard to find sometimes, so hopefully this will help!
TEC: Open 24/7 for general use (3D print pickups, access to light hand tools, etc) and staffed noon-8pm Sunday-Friday for assistance with any equipment.
Ruby : Open for general use whenever the Ruby is open. Staffed from noon-6pm M-F for access to laser cutters and CNC machines.
Lilly Library : Open for 3D print pickup anytime Lilly is open and staffed for help 4pm-8pm Monday through Friday.
Want to help us run these amazing labs?  The Studio is hiring too!

Join us on Wednesday, September 8th, between 5:30pm and 7:30pm to get (re-)acquainted with the Co-Lab.  We'll be at our TEC Studio (see previous paragraph for directions) for some fun activities including laser engraving, LED cards making, drones flying and much more!!  If you've never been to the Co-Lab before, this is a perfect opportunity to drop by and learn more about what we do.

Enjoy Your First Week & Stay Safe!
