GENETICS 310-PRINCIPLES OF HEREDITY INSTRUCTOR: Clint Magill Department of Plant Pathology and Microbiology Office: 202H, L. F. Peterson, Phone: 845 8250, email: [email protected] MY OBJECTIVE: You will appreciate and be able to convey to others the many ways genetics impacts our daily lives. TEXT: (recommended) Human Genetics by Ricki Lewis (5th-10th) editions all OK EXTRAS: Lecture notes, study guides (learning objectives) and PDF versions of old tests with and without answers can be accessed via the internet at: Genetics 310 TAMU . GRADES: Your grade will be determined by your performance on 3 in-class exams, a comprehensive final, and an outside paper on a relevant topic of your choice, all weighted equally and all curved to the standard 90, 80, 70, 60 scale for A, B, C and D grades. The lowest of the five scores will be dropped in calculating the final average. Makeup exams will be permitted only for excused absences. An incomplete will be given only to students with a passing average who have an excused absence for examinations missed.
