I sincerely thank my BISC 220 coinstructors Tucker Crum and Gary Harris for their help in developing and implementing the lab and the evaluative surveys, the spring 2007 BISC 220 class for participating in the surveys, Padma Kannabiran for technical assistance with lab preparations, and Mary Allen and Kaye Peterman for helpful comments on the manuscript. Thank you also to Elizabeth Vallen and Vlad Denic for sharing yeast strains and plasmids and to Randy Schekman for providing the anti-pp-α-F antibody that was used in the initial development of the pp-α-F Western blot experiment. This article is dedicated to the memory of Glory Hom, a BISC 220 student who always brightened my day.
