Although there are scheduled lab hours, you are free to do the lab assignments and work on your projects at your convenience. The TAs will be in the lab during lab hours, so if you want their help please attend the scheduled sessions. You will have card-key access to the lab, and can use the lab any time day or night. The lock keeps track of when you enter the lab. Do not remove any equipment, documentation, or tools from the lab. Only students who are registered for CSE477 or CSE467 are permitted to use the lab, so please do not admit anyone anyone else. Please keep the doors locked at all times, to prevent theft. If you see someone in the lab that you think does not belong there, inform Chris, a TA, or the instructor. If we are not available, call the University Police at 9-911.
Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the lab. Do not disrupt your fellow students.
Please help keep the lab clean and neat. If you are leaving the lab for any length of time, please clear your bench so someone else can use it. Do not assume that you can use a workbench indefinitely. If for some reason you need to monopolize a bench or piece of quipment, leave a note explaining the situation, and include your name and a phone number where you can be reached. We will provide each team with drawer space in the lab in which to store your project materials.
Christopher Morgan will provide and/or purchase the parts you need for your projects. See the resources page for more information on ordering parts. Warning: Parts can take several weeks for delivery, so you should determine as soon as possible what parts you need to order. We will purchase all parts for you, and expect you to return these parts at the end of the quarter. If you wish to keep your project after the end of the course, you need to work out an arragement with Chris to reimburse the parts cost.
You are responsible for the cost of replacing any and all parts that
you damage or lose through negligence.
