CDS 102

CDS 102 is the lab class associated with CDS 101. These weekly labs are designed to reinforce and extend the concepts you have learned in CDS 101.

Note that if your lab section normally meets on a day when the university is closed for a holiday, then your lab that week may be pushed back one week. From then on you will be one week behind the schedule below until your scheduled make-up day. This is most relelvant for lab sections that meet on Mondays.
