These guidelines are in effect beginning in fall quarter 2020 and are subject to change at any time.
The Bienen School provides instrument lockers and personal lockers for the use of its students. All lockers must be checked out through the Faculty Support Center via email at musicfacultysupport@northwestern.edu
To check out a locker:
New Instrumental Performance Majors who will be on-campus in Fall 2020 will be contacted by the Faculty Support Center via email at the beginning of the quarter and assigned an instrument locker. (Exceptions: piano, harp, and percussion do not receive an instrument locker.)
All Other Instrumental Performance Majors who will be on-campus in Fall 2020 may request a locker by emailing Faculty Support at musicfacultysupport@northwestern.edu
Notes
- There is no fee or deposit required
- Instrument lockers have University-provided padlocks to which students will receive a key.
- Lost locker keys will incur a replacement/rekey fee of $50.
- All personal lockers require a student-provided padlock.
Who can check out a locker?
Lockers are available only to students currently pursuing a music major in the Bienen School of Music. Due to limited availability, students may check out only one locker, unless there is a demonstrated need for multiple lockers (e.g. multiple instruments which do not fit an available locker). Lockers are assigned based on instrument type.
Instrument Lockers may be checked out by:
Any Bienen performance major needing to store one or more personal or school-owned instruments needed by or related to their studies.
Any other Bienen major needing to store instruments which are used for Bienen courses or ensembles (must be registered).
Personal Lockers may be checked out by:
Any Bienen major.
Preference is given to those students who are not eligible for instrument lockers.
Prior to Oct. 2, personal lockers may only be checked out by non-performance majors, and by those performance majors ineligible for instrument lockers (e.g. voice, piano). Beginning Oct. 2, personal lockers are available to all Bienen majors depending on availability.
Special requests for locker checkout from majors and nonmajors not meeting the above criteria will be considered. Email requests to musicfacultysupport@northwestern.edu.
