Rules:

Lab experiment is due at the end of the lab.
Laboratory Logbook: logbook is required.
Lab grades are A, B, C, D or F and account for your quiz grade, proper completion of the experiment, homework, preparation, etc.
There will be pop quizzes.
Logbooks will be turned in at the end of the session and I will place them in my mailbox with your grade.
The student is responsible for being prepared before each experiment.
Attendance: You are expected to be at every laboratory session. No make up sessions will be held.
Group work: Not allowed, all work is individual.
Final exam will be closed book open logbook.
