Please note, that it was not possible to give everyone their first choiheir laboratory assignments. I have tried my best to accomodate everyone's wishes as best as I can. We like to keep the sections small so that everyone gets a chance to do the experiments. If two people wish to exchange their sections with each other, please come and see me.
