Alfred W. Crompton, professor of Biology, who gave Bio 21 last fall with C. Richard Taylor, professor of Biology, said yesterday that the grades for the first hourly "mysteriously disappeared" from the Bio 21 office, "never to be seen again." Crompton said he did not know who, if anyone, took the grades, or why they took them...
...Bio 21's two hour exams will determine one half of the final grade in the course, Crompton said. The rest of the final grade will be based on laboratory work and the final examination, he added...
...five-week routine of pedaling, dieting, spinning and bed rest at NASA'S Ames Research Center in California. They patiently endured such triumphs of technology as electronic heart monitors tucked into their bras and pill-sized sensors that transmitted temperature data from the vagina by way of a "bio-belt" worn around the waist. The experiment was designed to find out whether weightlessness and re-entry forces like those experienced by astronauts affect females more severely than males. To the delight of the test subjects-and of NASA critics who have charged discrimination in the selection of astronauts...
...intending concentrating in Biology and you have strong background in the sciences, I would suggest fulfilling the premed requirement in biology with Bio 2 and any one of the between level courses with lab rather than with Bio 1 and 2. Bio 1 simply is not terribly relevant nor terribly helpful for medical school work. Thus, Bio 15a, Bio 10b, or Bio 21 are reasonable adjuncts to Bio 2. Biology should be deferred until sophomore year for two reasons: performance as a freshman in chem and math can give you a clue about which biology to enroll in (between...
...biology as a freshman, especially if you have a burning desire to do biology then, is to take chemistry (either Nat Sci 3 or Chem 6) in the first semester and, if you manage to do honors work in both the chemistry and math courses first semester, enroll in Bio 2 during the spring, in general, however, it is probably wise to defer your initial bio course until sophomore year. After having taken the one-year of required biology, it is wise to take at least an additional semester of bio, which might include any of the between-level courses...
