Lab Activities
spring 2008
| This is the foundation of all. We are not to imagine or suppose, but to discover, what nature does or may be made to do. |
| Francis Bacon |
Lab activities are scheduled from 2:00 – 4:50pm and 5:30 – 8:20pm on Tuesdays in the physics lab: Scales Hall 214.
It is important you attend the lab section that you are registered for. If you need to "trade," then contact the teacher in advance.
