The Department was also ably represented in the College Bowl at the Chicago meetings. Don Edwards was the College Bowl organizer this year and coach of the USC team. Send Us A Few Good Students We are always looking for a few good students. Please send names, addresses, and phone numbers of potential students for our undergraduate or graduate programs. John Spurrier and Lori Thombs will lead the workshop.
Funding is available to support local expenses of all selected participants.
Participants will take part in ten laboratory experiences which illustrate important concepts of applied statistics. In addition, participants will discuss strategies for leading a laboratory session, using student teams, having students produce written reports, obtaining equipment, scheduling, constructing new laboratory exercises, generating enrollments, and training lab assistants. All of our faculty are very busy with professional activities, instructional activities, and statistical research. Todd Ogden has just completed a book on the applications of wavelets to statistics which will be published by Birkhauser. Also, Walt Piegorsch is completing a book manuscript with co-author John Bailer on environmental statistics which is expected to be published next year.
