Labs

Labs are due the week after they are assigned.  Turn them into your TA during the lab session.  Make sure they are stapled together and that your name is written clearly on each page.

Where to get the lab manual:
You can pick the lab manual up, in installments, at The Pulse, Ackerman Union #A233B (next to the coop and the post office).  The cost is 7 cents per page.
Note: do not go to the Pulse in LuValle Commons.

You must pick up the first set before TUESDAY, April 3!  Tell them you are from Prof. Gould's Statistics M12 class.
