Thank you for the information. You bring up an interesting element, which is the size of the institution. I would add, though, that the number of students served (e.g., the number of language students, or the number of language students who actually use the lab) is also important. Lab use statistics, coming from students swiping their ID cards as they enter the facility, or from a simple sign-up sheet at the front desk, provide important information regarding how many customers lab staff have to interact with/serve during a given day or week (and to that you would add the number of deparmental staff and faculty).
