Lecture Schedule for Systemic Pathology 2025

Here is the course schedule for Systemic Pathology (DDS 6254) for fall 2025. Here are a few things to be aware of:

  1. All of our in-class lectures will be in Moos 2-650. 
  2. I will be on vacation for three weeks (10/6-10/22), so we will NOT be having in-class sessions for those weeks (see the schedule below for what you’ll be doing on those days!)
  3. I have also changed our 11/26 lecture to an online asynchronous video (posted below) since it’s the day before Thanksgiving. 
  4. Lectures are scheduled to be recorded by Mediasite and I’ll post them as soon as they are available (usually the same day).
  5. Quizzes 1 and 3 will be done in the classroom using Kahoot.
  6. Exam Review sessions 1, 3, and 4 will be done in the classroom using Kahoot.
  7. Exams will be delivered using ExamSoft, just like we did in General Histology and General Pathology. You can take them anywhere you like, and they will be open for the entire day.
