The Ten Commandments of the laboratory
1. Thou shalt have thy pre-lab done before class.
2. Thou shalt not do other assignments in lab; thy Instructor is a jealous Instructor, punishing his students to the third and fourth generations.
3. Thou shalt not misuse the terminology; the Instructor will cackle evilly as your points dwindle away.
4. Remember the Lab day by having thy work from last week complete.
5. Honor thy Instructor, that thou may live long and not blow thyself up.
6. Thou shalt not muddle (in experiments not assigned).
7. Thou shalt clean up after thyself upon penalty of “F.”
8. Thou shalt not steal another’s lab equipment.
9. Thou shalt not give false testimony about thy results, nor covet thy neighbor’s results.
10. Thou shalt honor the Safety Rules above all else.
