Physics 1302.500 Spring 2002
Class News for the week of May 6- May 10
Labs this week will have an open "ask-the-TA" session and a "post-test" from the Physics Department. The post-test will NOT affect your grade.The course evaluation system is available via this link.
The final exam is May 15th from 1830 to 2130.
If you have any doubts about your lab grade, please see me or your TA as soon as possible. You must pass the Lab to pass the course.
The physics department has posted answers to all the problems in the textbook. This page is not accessible from outside the .umn.edu domain to avoid copyright problems.
There is now a links page. The syllabus is here.
