There are now forms under Assignments and Scores for submitting a request for a hormone for the project. This is the only allowable method for requesting a hormone. Be sure to use the correct form.

Though the Official Laboratory Schedule does not explicitly say it, the Abdominopelvic Quadrants Table is due next week (of 02 February). I'll be collecting them at 19:00:00, so if you're not done when you enter the laboratory, you'll lose points. Enjoy the weekend.

I'm glad that some students are already using the Anonymous Comments link. But I've received a couple of submissions that were questions needing answers. Keep in mind that the form is anonymous, meaning that I don't know who is sending it, and I therefore cannot respond. The form is there for you to speak your mind. If you have a question to which you need a reply, you will need to email me. Enjoy the weekend.

You should consider attending an information session that's being held Friday 23 January in DB223. It's about the expectations and rigor of the BIO201/202/205 classes and how to succeed using the various resources available to you, including the Success Center. Even if you can't make it to this 11:00 session, you should be aware of the Success Center.

I've added the official Laboratory Schedule to the website. Also, I've slightly changed the syllabus and the textbooks page:

I've added a randomization feature to the vocabulary pages. I think this is important, because people tend to memorize terms in a list based on their positions in the list. Don't underestimate the importance of vocabulary. If you don't know the meanings of biological terms, you won't be able to make sense of many of my test questions. On the other hand, if you know the terms WELL, you'll probably realize that many of my test questions are really quite obvious. This can have a big effect on your grade.
