The table below contains a tentative schedule for this semester and is updated weekly to correspond to topics covered in class.  Lecture notes are available here as well as class capture recordings through the "video" links.  Class-capture recordings for 2008 are still available through www.chrisbilder.com/stat875/schedule_2008.htm.  

Please note that I use MathType for all equations in my Word files.  Sometimes, parts of these equations will not look correct if you do not have MathType's corresponding fonts on your computer.  You can download a free, executable file containing the fonts from their website.  Click here to go to their font installer web page.  While the web page asks for an e-mail address, your e-mail address is not needed to download the fonts.
