Lab Rules (something I think we should all agree upon)

Okay, labs in this class are obviously way different from honors chem, or any class at all for that matter. I think we should establish some rules for teamwork and help in the labs.
Just post in here any rules you think should be necessary for our labs and we can all agree upon them as a class. But also, as a student body all trying to get A's.

I have a rule:
1) If for any reason you are absent and have lab work/data/papers that your group needs, it is ESSENTIAL that you get the information or the papers to your lab mates before class. This will be good so you do not throw your group behind.

I would have to completely agree with rule 1 from experience. Also, some advice: it really helps if you talk about your conclusion with your whole group before turning it in.

I think, perhaps the night or two nights before our due date, we should all get online through aim or yahoo instant messenger and work out all the kinks. This will be easier than three-way calling because 1. It's free and 2. We have four people in our group so it's quite impossible otherwise.
