Evaluation will be based on two examinations, homework assignments, leading a classroom discussion of an empirical paper from the syllabus, and class participation. A detailed list of assignments and due dates is available on the web. Links to numerous statistical databases are incorporated directly into the syllabus. Links used during class will be posted so students can visit these sites outside of class. Students will be required to visit web sites to complete homework assignments.
All materials are on two hour reserve.
