<p>[BC</a> student hurt in lab accident - Boston.com](<a href=“http://articles.boston.com/2011-06-26/news/29706163_1_lab-safety-chemistry-student-lab-accident]BC”>http://articles.boston.com/2011-06-26/news/29706163_1_lab-safety-chemistry-student-lab-accident)</p>
<p>Again, the accident happened when the student was working ALONE in the lab. Luckily, she was not seriously hurt, but her actions after the accident hint that she was in shock and not thinking clearly about what steps needed to be taken after the explosion.</p>
<p>Science majors: please, please do not run potentially dangerous experiments when you are in the labs alone on a weekend or late at night.</p>
