Subject: Glove use in academic teaching labs

I would like to get some feedback from the list about the use of gloves in academic teaching labs.  Do you require students to wear gloves all of the time (much like splash goggles), or only in situations where the likelihood of skin exposure to a particular chemical is significant.  Or, other?  And, what kind(s) of disposable glove(s) are made available to students?

Thanks.

Dave
