And who hasn't got a lab at one time or another during the school week. The pictures on this page are just a few of the labs that take place every day, and probably aren't representative of the many different types offered or required of the undergraduate student.
For instance, there are English labs, editing labs, Spanish labs, chemistry labs, law labs, and labs of every type in every school and department.
Many times a lab is considered by the school or department as only a small portion of the course, but any student can tell you that they take the most time. But the lab has its good points—that's where the student puts into practice what he has learned from reading and lectures.
