We have a chemistry student this quarter who is about 4 feet tall and is concerned that her height places her face at an unsafe distance from the chemicals.  She has suggested that she use a stool in the lab, which seems to me like a reasonable solution.  However, others have raised a concern about falling and tripping over the stool. 

 

I was hoping someone on the list might have had a similar experience and would be willing to share any lessons learned.

 

Thanks
