MHGS has a fantastic facility in the heart of Belltown. As it is our common spacer, here are a few rules and common courtesies you should know about.

Students may enter/exit the building by using the main MHGS entrance.  The main entrance is open from 8 a.m. till 6 p.m.  To access the building before or after hours, you must contact the facilities manager.  To access stairwells and elevators after hours, the student must use his/her MHGS identification card.   

Should a student need to see an administrator or faculty member, he/she should check in at the front desk, located in the lobby at the main MHGS entrance. 

Weekday:  During the week the building will open at 8:00 a.m. and closes at 6:00 p.m.  If there is a class after 6:00 p.m. and entrance is needed into the building, students must present his/her MHGS Identification card at the front desk. To access the library, enter through the main entrance on Elliott Avenue.  

Weekend: The library is open on most Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. till 5:00 p.m. 

The student lounge provides space for all students, faculty, and staff to relax and enjoy fellowship.  Clean up of the student lounge is the user’s responsibility. The refrigerator may be used to store lunches/dinners, however each Friday the refrigerator will be cleaned out and all perishables will be donated or thrown away.  The complete refrigerator policy is posted on the refrigerator.  

Computers are available in the library. 

Contact the front desk to schedule a classroom for a MHGS-related event.  Those hosting the event are responsible for set-up, teardown, and lock-up of the building.  A small fee is required if requested event is not directly connected to the MHGS community.

For closures because of weather or natural disaster, the MHGS voice mail greeting will convey the message if the business office is closed and if classes are cancelled for the day.  The website will also list closures.

There are several bulletin boards in the building - five in the east stairwell, two in the west stairwell and one in the elevator. Each board is numbered, and marked as to posting "authority". There are two boards available for general postings by anyone in the MHGS Community. To post on specific boards you must contact the person/department named on that board. All postings have a 30-day posting limit. For additional questions or comments, please contact Molly Kenzler at the Front Desk.
