COURSE GOALS
REQUIRED TEXTS:
1. Cartmill, M., W. L. Hylander, and J. Shafland. 1987. Human Structure.
2. Sumida, S. S. 1995. Laboratory Guide to Human Anatomy: Development, Musculoskeletal, and Nervous Systems. Burgess Publishing. (
3. Sumida, S. S. 1996. Laboratory Guide to Human Anatomy: Early Development of the Head and Neck, Visceral and Circulatory Systems Based on Dissection of the Cat. Burgess Publishing. (
4. Gilory, A.N. B. R. MacPhearson, and L. M. Ross. 2008. Atlas of Anatomy. Thieme Medical Publishers,
The atlas by Gilroy et al. is to be used as a laboratory aid, but has excellent text and will be useful for lecture study as well. Students are expected to have read all assigned material prior to the beginning of the designated lecture or laboratory section.
Grading Procedures: There will be two midterms of 150 and 200 points each. The final examination will be worth 300 points. Laboratory quizes will be worth 100 points and the laboratory final will be worth 100 points. Total points graded equals 850 points attainable. There will be no make-up quizzes or practicals due to the need to prepare multiple stations for these types of evaluations.
Examinations that are missed due to unavoidable problems (e.g. illness or a death in the family) will normally be made up as an
Grading Criteria: The course is not graded on a curve. Letter grades are not assigned for individual exams or quizzes; rather they are based on the cumulative points. Grades will be set according to the criteria listed below.

Laboratory Equipment
Dissection Tools: Minimal dissection tools that will be required for Biology 323 are: a blunt probe, scissors, a scalpel with replaceable blades, and a pair of forceps. Kits containing most of these are available in the student store but are of inferior quality. Medical grade tools are preferable and are available at the Loma Linda Medical Student bookstore and the UCLA Biomedical bookstore. American Surgical Supply on
Office Hours: Dr. Sumida’s office hours will be held on Tuesdays directly after class in room BI-314 or the class laboratory. Additional hours will be added once students’ schedules are evaluated. Students wishing extra time in the laboratory may use these and the remaining hours between lecture and laboratory periods for review if the laboratory is unoccupied by other classes. Additionally, e-mail is checked by the instructor daily. Dr. Sumida's e-mail address is: ssumida@csusb.edu.
SERICES TO STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES: If you are in need of an accommodation for a disability in order to participate in this class, please let the professor know as soon as possible, and also contact Services to Students with Disabilities at UH-183, (909)537-5238.
