Students are responsible for the condition of their assigned microscopes and lab drawers.
A handout describing how to aseptically handle bacterial cultures will also be distributed. These procedures must be observed during each session and are necessary to prevent the contamination of students as well as cultures. Attendance is mandatory for each lab session. Anyone who misses a lab for a non-verifiable reason will receive a grade of zero for any missed work. Legitimately missed labs may be made up at the instructor's perogative.
