Please note that even if you are turning in your report late, you must still turn in the current week's pre-lab questions on time. If you cannot make your recitation, we can schedule another time to meet. If you must miss the laboratory section, I can try to arrange for you to do the work in somebody else's section, or we can arrange for a make-up time. You are expected to familiarize yourself with the current week's experiment before coming to the section. Please read the complete description of the experiment in the course manual and arrive ready to discuss any questions that you have about the scientific principles underlying the experiment or the experimental apparatus.
Safety Read the introduction to the lab manual, as it contains important safety information.

This is a laboratory environment, and it is important to retain your common sense regarding safety. Wash your hands after leaving lab. Experiments involving radioactive material are performed in this laboratory, and there is always the chance that some surfaces may be contaminated with lead or other potentially harmful substances.
