I would ask the student why he wears that hat in the lab. Men wearing hats indoors used to be considered highly impolite (except, apparently, for newspaper reporters) but that has largely gone by the wayside. There may be a valid reason.
On the other hand, does he wear it in more conventional, lecture room settings, where it could certainly be an issue of blocking the view of other students. If not in lecture, why in lab?

Does anyone have guidance on wearing hats in lab? An instructor for sophomore organic chemistry at my institution reports that a student has repeatedly come to lab wearing a cowboy hat. The student
is otherwise appropriately dressed, but we wonder about visibility (will the student's peripheral vision be obstructed?), whether people might bump into the hat, and whether the hat might knock over glassware. (It's a pretty crowded room when everybody is
setting up their apparatus.)
Is this something others have encountered? Are hats in lab acceptable from a safety perspective?
