GHG: Who What Why How and Why

To keep the lab running smoothly for everyone, GidHub needs have been divided into specific tasks outlined below. Each task is assigned to 2-3 students known as GidHub Guardians (GHGs) who act as the main overseers of the relevant equipment and spaces. It is not their job to clean up anyone else's mess! GHGs enforce guidelines by calling out misuse of Gidhub resources and educating other students on proper lab procedure, and their main role is to empower others to use GH resources through mentoring/training and through using the resources themselves to show examples of what GH can do!

To keep Gidhub relevant to student needs, each Guardian will advise a VIX team and ensure that they have the resources and trainings needed to complete their projects.
