LABS

Each lab is due the start of the following lab.

All Labs are now on-line but there will be minor modifications and updates made a week or so prior to each lab. You do not need to print out copies of the labs - They will be provided in class.

If you want to work on the labs outside class hours, your Husky Card should give you card swipe access to the building. You can be in the lab any time it is not in use for a class (check the calendar outside the door or the on-line schedule)
