I will supplement the text to a large extent with material presented in lecture and anyone not in attendance risks missing information which one may be expected to know for examinations. Attendance in lab is required of all students. Labs will be scheduled according to availability of plant materials and developmental stages, so it is unlikely that students will be able to make up any missed labs. Because of the nature of the lab exercises, in order to provide each student with individualized instruction and training, alternative or additional hours from those scheduled may be required. All students are bound by the JMU Honor Code.
All assignments are to be completed individually unless otherwise directed.
