Microbiology for non-majors?

[Marlene DeMers]

Hi,
Are there any educators out there that have experience in 
teaching an introductory microbiology class for non-majors, 
that are in the Allied Health fields, such as pre-nursing, 
food and nutrition, environmental health, and pre physicians 
assistants, etc.?  I am mostly interested in some suggestions 
for laboratory exercises that relate to some of the above.  I 
also would like to know what the lecture syllabus consists of.
Is your mission statement different from a General 
Microbiology class for majors?
Please e-mail me if your interested in exchanging ideas or 
have some suggestions.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give.
Sincerely,
Marlene
