  1. Dark Matter…what they are afraid to tell you in class… http://www.lab-initio.com/250dpi/nz166.jpg

  2. Today’s agenda: Did you turn in Assignment #2? Assignment #4: see Pam in the department office and get your picture taken. If you don’t want your picture taken, let her know. Non-majors, no need to get picture taken. (Assignment 1 was definition of Physics, assignment 2 was email syllabus, assignment 3 is attend an SPS meeting.) This week’s colloquium. SPS membership. Individual form. Bulk form. B.S. Physics requirements. Thoughts about careers. Skip to slide 5.

  7. Some courses run once a year. Others run every other year or on demand (e.g. Relativity). Fall courses: 307 (Modern II), 308 (Mechanics), 321 (E&M II), 361 (Quantum), 381 (Solid State) Spring courses: 207 (Modern I), 208 (Theoretical), 212 (Intermediate Lab), 221 (E&M I), 311 (Thermo). Don’t graduate a year late because of one course!

  8. Total Hours: 128 Required: 82 Electives: Math/Stat 6 (208/322/325/351 recommended) Physics 6 (305, 323, 337, 357, 371 or 381) Social Studies 6 Humanities 9 (3 lit.; 3 300-level, e.g. Phil 345) Free 19 Total 46 (18 elective hours at jr/sr level) What should you do with your electives? If you plan on getting a teaching certificate, look at this.

  9. What do you want to do after you graduate? Look here and here. graphic from “http://www.aip.org/statistics/trends/highlite/bachplus5/ bachplus5.htm” the above link is no longer active, but you can view a wealth of statistics here: http://www.aip.org/statistics/ “nearly 90 percent of all physicists are hidden physicists”
