There are required pre-lab questions you must answer and bring to lab. See your lab manual for details. There will be lab quizzes at the beginning of each lab except the first, covering the material from the previous lab. You will be allowed to use your lab notes for the quizzes, so be sure your notes are complete. There will also be a lab participation grade given at the end of the semester.

Labs are required. Except for emergencies, you must attend lab with the TA you registered for. Your TA is not allowed to cancel any classes, and you are responsible for attending, unless you hear from a higher source. 10% off your lab grade for each lab you miss. If you have more than 2 unexcused missed labs, you will get an F in Physics 104.  If you MUST attend a different lab section than the one for which you registered (refer to the excused absence policy here), please e-mail your regular TA and the TA whose lab you will be attending.

 Feedback is welcome. Please speak to your TA.

If you miss a lab and do not make it up, 10% will be deducted from your lab grade; 2 labs, 20%, and so forth. To be entitled to a makeup, your absence must be excused (see the Syllabus page).
