As full-time professors in the Liberal Arts Department at Hongik University, we would like to request that either:

• An additional photocopier be provided in both A408 and E504-1 OR
• The existing photocopiers be replaced with new models

Currently, there is only ONE photocopier in A408, and ONE photocopier in E504-1. Both photocopiers are aging, and suffer from overheating, frequent paper jams, and other problems such as random switching of orientation and unexplained error messages.

We feel that the current level of provision of photocopying facilities is INADEQUATE given the number of teaching staff who are regularly using these copiers.

The copier in A408 is the main copier available to the 26 teaching staff of in the Liberal Arts department as well as professors teaching in A building from other departments. The copier in E504-1 is also used by a large number of professors teaching in E building on a regular basis, and yet, both copiers are frequently out of order, leading to inconvenience and delays.

We aim to deliver excellence in our teaching; we ask that the university supply us with the facilities we need to achieve this.
