Welcome
Back!!

Warning: Parking can be really bad during the
first few weeks of the semester, especially due to the
numerous sites of construction taking place on and
around campus, which takes up some of the parking spaces
for equipment, and so on! With the construction
completed on the new parking structure, parking
shouldn't be too bad, but you may want to arrive early,
just in case, to find a parking space!
-
Warning: If you do
not come to the first day of class you may lose your
space to someone on the the wait list who does show up
for class!
-
The campus
imail system has recently transitioned to a
Gmail system during the
Spring 2013 semester. I will try to keep you
updated on this transition!

First day of lab:
Metrics Laboratory Assignment
(Summer 2013) -
You will need to bring a
calculator that can handle very large and very small
numbers, scientific notation, etc. For example, 1
million = 1,000,000 or 1 X 106, 1 billion =
1,000,000,000 or 1 X 109, 1 micrometer =
0.000001 or 1 X 10-6, 1 nanometer =
0.000000001 or 1 X 10-9, 1 picometer =
0.000000000001 or 1 X 10-12, 1 light year is
approximately 6 trillion miles = 6,000,000,000,000 or 6
X 1012, etc.

This is just a reminder
that the Science Skills
Center will be open for the Fall Semester.. students are
taught Study Skills such as annotation of text,
paraphrasing, concept mapping, graphics reading, etc, within
the context of their science course. All of the homework
students do comes from the text, notes and handouts of YOUR
course. Research shows that students who finish the SSC have
about 15-20% higher success rates than students who do not
complete the course. Students are required to have 6
to 8 meetings of 20 to 30 minutes with an IA, and they must complete
all of the required homework assignments.

If
you have any questions about the Skills Center, please
contact the Skills Center directly and talk to one of the
IAs (484-8204 or

The
ARC Career
and Job Opportunity Center offers an array of
resources to assist students in choosing career
options, preparing
for employment, and researching current job
openings.

The campus IT department
recently changed the server for our websites, which
changed the addresses of most of the links included
in my pages. I have updated my website, but if
you come across a link that doesn't work, please let
me know, by contacting me at:
