If you can't get into a PHYS-2080 Lab section, go to the Physics Dept. Office in Everett Tower or call (269) 387-4940, and put your name on the Waiting List. It is still early and students' registrations often change, which can free up a lab spot. It is also possible that another lab section could be opened up.

There is some confusion about which edition was, or should have been, ordered for Summer-II 2010.

You may use either Serway & Jewett 7th or 8th edition -- I will be working from the WMU Volume 2 versions.

Serway 7th ed WMU Volume 2 WMU 7th Vol. 2    Serway 8th Edition WMU Volume 2 WMU 8th Vol. 2

Physics for Scientists and Engineers by Serway & Jewitt, WMU 8th edition, Volume 2. ISBN-10: 1-111-07043-1 , ISBN-13: 978-1-111-07043-4
