All equipment, edit suites, and studio reservation privileges will remain suspended until the payment receipt is presented to the Equipment Cage in person or via email to production@qatar.northwestern.edu.
Equipment returned should be in the condition that it is ready for use by the next person.
* Satisfactory fashion means: machines turned off, cables coiled properly, all equipment packed in original cases, all tape removed from cables and cases, and dirt or sand cleaned off. All recording media must be formatted and present at check-in. Equipment should be ready for use by the next person.
