Missed Lab Information:

Labs are very difficult to make up due to the equipment required and the solutions that need to be prepared. It is very important that you are in class on lab days. If it is neccessary to miss a lab due to illness, you must complete the current event assignment as an alternative.

ALL MISSED LAB ASSIGNMENTS ARE DUE WITHING 3 DAYS OF THE ORIGINAL LAB DATE. Websites such as About.com, Howstuffworks, wikipedia, etc... ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE!! Must be a full current event article from a valid journal/newspaper.
