There are two labs offered every week. If you look at the lab syllabus, you will see that some of the labs are labeled "Lab Code A" while the other labs are labeled "Lab Code B." If your lab is scheduled to meet in 3086 SEL (sections 13986, 13987 13988, and 17800 - yeah, there was a typo on the timetable), you will do the "A" lab on Tuesday or Wednesday in 3086 SEL and then do the "B" lab on Thursday or Friday in 3100 SEL. If your labs are scheduled to meet in 3100 SEL (sections 13980, 13983), you will do the "B" lab on Wednesday in 3100 SEL and then do the "A" lab on Friday in 3086 SEL. If the lab code says A & B, then you meet in the room in which your first lab was held (the “A” lab people in 3086 SEL, the “B” lab people in 3100 SEL).
Be sure that you understand how the summer laboratory schedule operates so that you do not prepare for the wrong lab!
Note: Some of the laboratories will be using stains and chemicals which can damage clothing, so please dress accordingly to laboratory. Neither UIC nor the Biology Department will assume any responsibility for damaged clothing. Also, there will be a fetal pig dissection. If you have religious or ethical objections to this, please contact Michael Muller as soon as possible. An alternate exercise will be assigned.
