Lactation Room

The Psychology lactation room is located in McGill Hall Room 5143. Psychology department members and affiliates may request to reserve use of this room. The room includes a table, chair, lamp, and shelving.

A 1.7 cubic ft refrigerator and pump (Medela Pump, Style Advanced) will be kept in the room for shared use. Only the pump is provided – users are expected to have their own accessories (tubing, etc.).The closest sinks for use are the 5th floor mail room or women's restroom.
