III. governance
A. rationale
Carleton production equipment and studios are shared resources. As with shared resources elsewhere, there must be governance around them. People who successfully complete the Moodle-based qualification training form a media production community at Carleton. This governance was created to protect our personal health and safety, our ability to meet work deadlines, and the production equipment we use.
It’s vital to the Carleton media production community’s well-being that facilities are safe to use. This safety is not external to our creative activity but arises from the sum of our actions.
Learning to navigate complex deadlines under tight time pressure is part of the creative endeavor. Just as other people’s actions can affect your ability to do your creative work and finish assignments on time, your actions affect others’ ability to do the same. The importance in this context of returning gear on time can’t be overstated. Treating well the gear we use, so that it stays in good working order, turns out to be just as important. Replacing lost or damaged gear not only costs money but causes delay likely to compromise your ability and others’ to finish work on time.
