Lab Pre-lab policies:

You will not be permitted in the lab, if you fail to complete the section of the pre-lab on safety.
You will not be permitted to start an experiment, if in the opinion of the instructor, you are not prepared to conduct a lab experiment.

Server maintenance: On Tuesday, October 1st, the ICN server will be down beginning at 2:00 AM through 5:00 AM.

Accommodations:

There are various questions that you may have about accommodations. One of them is about Testing/Extra time. As with your class, which generally has a fixed length of time, the lab sessions are also fixed. We do not consider experiments as tests, and so we no capacity to extend these. Working with your TA to get as prepared as you can for lab, is one strategy that can help with this issue. Another common question is about lab experiment due dates. We 'd like you to complete your lab assignments within 72 hours of performing the lab. This allows you to write up what was done in lab while it it fresh and you will be able to see if there are any issues that you need to address to complete the assignment. However, the due date is generally set 1 week out, to allow you extra time to complete your assignments. If you have questions about accommodations, please contact Dr. Mitchell Bruce at mbruce@maine.edu.
