All workshops are 1 hour. Students are expected to come on time, participate, and stay until the end of the workshop. Instructors will be emailed attendance at the end of the week. It is the students' responsibility to keep track of number of workshops attended. Lab staff does not keep a running record of each individual student's attendance.
