Confirmation consists of merely checking the lists of names we have posted from the Registrar's Office to make sure our information is current, and you are indeed assigned to the right lab at the right time. All Students MUST be registered for a Lab Section to be in the course.
If a student's name is missing or highlighted, that student should immediately report to the Instructional Services Office (KPTC 205) as soon as possible to resolve any registration discrepancies.
All changes in course registration either adding or dropping courses or lab section changes must be made through the Physics Instructional Services Office no later than the end of the day Thursday week 1 of Spring Quarter. Subsequent changes will start again the following Monday, of week 2.
Please note that undergraduate laboratories begin in week 3 of each quarter, unless otherwise indicated in handouts and/or literature given out by the instructor teaching the course. The posted list received from the Registrars Office are effective as of the first day of the current quarter. Even if you receive verification of the lab section you are assigned to from the Registrars Office -- PLEASE CHECK AGAIN TO BE SURE YOU ARE ASSIGNED TO A LAB SECTION AND REGISTERED FOR A PHYSICS COURSE.
If your name does not appear on the posted assignments, you must do a COURSE ADD by going to KPTC 205.
