Biology For Life (B4L) is for students who do NOT want an overview of biology. If you want a more rigorous biology course, take either BIO113 or BIO114. B4L covers topics of general interest now and after you graduate. The course includes a laboratory component which is mandatory. You will need a laptop or tablet for every class session. You will need to read the assigned pages before class because Dr. C. cold calls on everyone in every class meeting!
