* Lab Sections (1 or 2 sections = 1.5-3 hrs / week) - Ditto
* Mentoring meetings (2 - 2.5 hrs / week) - The honors section has weekly one-hour meetings, and you will be expected to have two or three 30 minutee meetings with your assigned groups. The meeting will primarily cover what happened this past week and prepare for the next week.
