		+	'''A Word of Warning:''' The Math/Stat Department at AU teaches STAT 202 to prepare students to use statistics in advanced courses required for many majors. Thus STAT 202 instructor does not always have the luxury of setting the most comfortable and easy pace through the course material. The pace will be determined by what we need to cover for your future classes. There is a lot of material in the curriculum, especially considering it is condensed into six weeks, so be prepared to work hard and spend a lot of time studying outside of class.

	'''Prerequisite:''' MATH-15x or higher, or permission of department. No prior knowledge of statistics is assumed.		'''Prerequisite:''' MATH-15x or higher, or permission of department. No prior knowledge of statistics is assumed.
