 We hope that you can join us for the penultimate  Applied Statistics
Workshop  of the year this Wednesday, April 20th. This week we are
extremely excited to have  Jeffrey Lewis , Associate Professor of
Political Science at UCLA, presenting on the compactness of
congressional districts, a topic that involves some interesting
econometric issues as well as a large GiS component. Note that this is
a change from what is on the schedule. As usual, we will start the
workshop at 12 noon with a light lunch and begin the talk at 12:15. We
wrap up the workshop at 1:30pm.
