Two (2) lecture exams of 150 points each and a third lecture exam of 125 points combined with the final exam of 75 cumulative points will be given.  Workshops practice questions of 50 points may be assigned for a total of between 500 and 550 points.

Academic Ethics:
Cheating will
NOT be tolerated.  The Biology Department has adopted the policy that the penalty for cheating, plagiarism or acquiescence in them shall be FAILURE for the course and possible suspension or expulsion.

Important Notes:
Biology 151
is a co-requisite of the course and the THIRD
meeting day during first summer session of the course will be the laboratory, BIL 151, and will take place in room SA-102, the labs off the main lobby of Science Building A.

On lab day the Bil 150 students should meet to do the workshops between 9:00am to 11:30 am

On lecture days (MW & R) we will meet twice in LC 192:

    1.  8:30a  to   9:45am   (just as in a Tues-Thur class format)
