Agenda for Labs

 * 1) Today you definitely need to talk with Koch about what needs to be included in your lab summary.
 * 2) Must finish taking data this week.  Summary should be completed outside of class.
 * 3) Must complete your hands-on "quiz" or interview with Koch. The in-class "quiz" is actually on-going...but you can request one at the end if you think I may have a bad impression of your understanding.
