*Bring your completed 8L intro packet to the first week of lab (ok to have older version of safety activity); if you lost your 8L intro packet, you can re-do the activity in lab. Copying someone else’s packet is considered cheating (please don’t do that!).

** Please do not come to lab unless you are enrolled. If you are added to the class after the first lab meeting, please contact me (cambinde@ucsc.edu) ASAP with the section information (day, time, & room) and all lab sections you are available attend to make up the work. More info to wait-listed students and late adds in the ‘Preparing for the First Day’ tab above.
