| Lab grade = 40% of course grade. There should generally be sufficient time to complete the lab reports in the lab period. There will be occasional exceptions, such as the weekend field trip and the sustainability debate.
The lab sections all meet in Hutchison 207. If you have any questions regarding lab, email the TAs, Dave Auerbach or Johanna Smith. |
