Book:     Physics 222 Laboratory Manual, Spring, 2002 or Fall, 2001 printing. This manual is available at the University Bookstore. If you purchase the Fall, 2001 printing, please pick up the small "update pack" at your first lab class. Only these two printings are suitable; if you received an earlier printing from the bookstore this semester, please return it to the bookstore in exchange for the correct printing.

Lab Fee:  The fee for Physics 222 Laboratory is $15.75.  You will be billed for this later in the semester.

Laboratory Room:  Physics Room 74 or 82, as noted below.

Policy on Absences from Lab and Lab Waivers:  See the reverse side of this schedule.

What is expected of me in this lab?  Read pages 1 to 9 of the Introduction in the lab manual.

*** Please note that experiments are not scheduled in the order in which they appear in the lab manual ***

Note I:    An early warning for those that do not read this schedule until the night before lab!  The pre-lab for the experiment that is scheduled for next week should be started a few days early, since it involves use of computers and software.

Note II:   For some sections, this experiment is early. Read the referenced sections in your text, or you will be at a disadvantage!
