In the lab

• Ask questions! Consider the lab session as my office hours.
• If I am helping someone else, let me know that you need help and I'll help you as soon as possible.
• I keep a queue when multiple people need help at the same time. Be sure to let me know as soon as possible that you need help.
• To avoid ``hogging'', I only spend up to 5 minutes per student each time when there are others waiting. After 5 minutes is up, sign up again for another 5 minutes.
• Consider the use of a USB flash drive or web-based email for transferring files. Floppy disks and ZIP disks are both very unreliable. For those with a home server, ftp/ssh also works.
• Observe all rules in the pink form. If any of my rules conflict with the pink form, the pink form overrules.
• No food nor drink in the lab. This include candies, chewing gum and etc.
• Same cell phone/pager policy as in the classroom, see above.
• Same non-disrupting policy as in the classroom, see above.
• Only use the computers for class related activities. Email only to the extent that is required by the class. Do not browse unrelated material on the web. The professor reserves the right to ask anyone who do not follow the lab rules leave the lab (not just the section). The professor also reserves the right to reset/power-off computers used for any activities not related to the class with or without prior warning.
