Laboratory Course Guidelines:
2. Lab write-ups are due at the beginning of the following lab unless the instructor directs otherwise. Late submittals will be assessed a 5-point penalty (out of 20) for up to one week after the due date. Labs turned in later than one week late will receive a "0" grade. Note that all labs write-ups must be turned in to pass the course, even if they aren't worth any points.
3. The format of the lab write-ups (e.g., layout, tables, graphing) will be governed by the guidelines for homework preparation distributed in class. In particular, note that most lab write-ups must include samples of every major type of calculation performed. This requirement holds even if a spreadsheet is used to perform the lab calculations.
4. You will be working in groups of two or three, and in most cases turning in group write-ups. It is expected that all members of a lab group participate fully in the performance and preparation of each lab.
5. Unless otherwise instructed, you will be expected to stay for the full scheduled duration of the lab. If you finish collecting your data early, use the remaining time to start your write-up.
6. At the end of each lab session, please wash your glassware, put away equipment in designated places, and clean up your lab space.
Lab Safety Guidelines:
2. Open-toed shoes are not allowed at any time.
3. Food and drink are not allowed in lab.
4. Protective wear (eyewear, gloves, and/or lab coats) are to be worn whenever directed by the instructor.
5. The instructor has the right and obligation to ask you to leave whenever you are not acting in a safe manner, or are not properly equipped.
