These two Biology Department courses are designed primarily for students majoring in Biology and multiple other science and health-related disciplines. Humans are biological organisms, and by studying the different aspects of biology just noted, we can gain knowledge about ourselves and our place in the natural world. In Biology 151 we will build on the knowledge base you gained in Biology 150 last semester. Various resources are available for this course on the Internet. Materials such as lecture notes, practice exam questions, etc., will be placed on the course web pages throughout the semester.
Attendance is highly recommended but at the discretion of each student.
We believe that you will find the lectures indispensible to earning a satisfactory grade. Furthermore, we request that when you attend class, you arrive on time - tardiness is disruptive. If for some reason you intend on leaving before the end of class please sit in the back of the room. If you do miss a class, it will be your responsibility to obtain lecture notes from one of your fellow classmates. The other half of the final will be comprehensive over the entire course.
