Dropping by early?  Welcome!  
            We don't have the Fall 2009 TA assignments finalized yet, and the web site won't go live until we do, but here's a little bit of information to get you started.  
            You will need three things for 204 lab:  a LAB MANUAL, a LAB NOTEBOOK, a COMBINATION LOCK, and a CALCULATOR. 
            Lab Manuals  are  $20 at the Co-op along the back wall.  You must have the Fall 2009 edition with the orange and white cover (see picture below).  Buy yours early because the Co-op usually runs out!  
            Lab notebooks like the one pictured below are $14.50  from the Duplicating office in the main hallway of Welch (room 2.228) or $15 at the Co-op.  It doesn't have to look like the one below, but it does have to have 100 DUPLICATE, NUMBERED pages. Most students use 70-90 pages over the course of the semester. 
            You can buy a combination lock from the Co-op for $5.15 in aisle 7, from the CH204 stockroom for $5, or from the Duplicating office in WEL 2.228 for $3.88, or just get one anywhere that fine personal security devices are sold.  Gotta be a combination lock.  No padlocks.  
            Make sure your calculator does exponents and logs.  Don't show up with a business calculator that will amortize your mortgage in two easy steps but won't allow you to calculate pH if your life depends on it. And don't come to class with a  little pink Hello Kitty calculator that gives off a  high-pitched beep every time you press a button.  (I know I shouldn't have to say these things, but guess what happens when I don't...)   |
