Important information:
·         Lab
o   Over the weekend you need to go to the Biology Department website and print out:

§  Note: the Stuy website comes and goes, so if you have trouble opening this link, try again a little later
·         Textbook
o   Please put your name somewhere discreetly on the inside cover of the textbook
o   I have changed my mind: you do NOT need to bring either book to school. Keep them at home.

Here is the additional homework for everyone else (sections 11, 14 and 18):
