The staff is kidding itself if it believes whatever students learn in Chem 27 lab will help our hurt their chances at graduate study.
It is good that Chem 17 students no longer have to struggle with a lab that is designed for the more advanced Chem 30 whiz-kids. But it would be better if the Chem 17 lab--a waste of five hours watching liquids drip or evaporate--were completely overhauled so that it required some intellectual activity from those students performing it.
As it stands, Chem 17 students have to spend five hours at the Science Center performing the lab, and perhaps ten hours before and after the lab writing about it. Hopefully Professor Schreiber will work at making the labs more stimulating.
