Gracious- To be kind, and to help others. Break it down further and you find the word Grace, which if to always forgive others, and to not hold grudges. Which is a whole different topic.
Professionalism- The act of being professional. To not lose your temper while dealing with others. To always keep the well being of the company (Or team in our case) in mind, and not your own ego.
That is my understanding.
Safety- To keep others and yourself safe.
If your are being Graciously Professional, will you not be watching for safety? If someone is about to do something stupid, is it not that hard to say "Hey! Student B, hold up. Let me help you with that." or "Hey, wait. before you go any further, but on these safety glasses will you? They help, trust me." is that not being safe and using GP at the same time?

I absolutely agree. In situations where you can do both, you absolutely should, but what if you HAD to choose between them?
