Math 1103 Introduction to Statistics
I am currently not teaching this course.
For the textbook bundle you purchased at the bookstore, do NOT unwrap your bundle until you are sure on the package. If you wish to wait until the first day of class I can discuss an e-book option.

Minitab Software
We will be using a statistical software package called Minitab during this term. Our campus has a site license so you will be able to utilize this program for free if you are on campus and log on to your student account. If you have other questions about the program, wish to download a free trail copy or rent/purchase Minitab for home use go to www.minitab.com and look under the "downloads" in the upper right-hand part of the page or else under the "Academic" tab.
