This course covers the basic ideas of statistics. This website contains information from Statistics 1001, Fall, 2001, and will be very similar to courses that I may offer in the future (but not in 2002-2003). The main difference is the change from 3 credits to 4 credits, and the addition of a lab session. The class meets MWF 12:20-1:10 in 209 Ackerman Hall; a lab session, probably on Tuesday or Thursday, will be added as well. I'll be using the same textbook, which is different from the book in other sections of 1001. Try it; you might just enjoy the course!
