The committee’s earliest activities included meetings with Congressional committee staffers to hear firsthand their views on climate change, how or whether it should be addressed, and how the statistical perspective may be helpful. Building on the successes in raising awareness on Capitol Hill and beyond regarding the reality of climate change, the group is now pivoting to an emphasis on promoting solutions to climate change. These new efforts will ultimately enable statisticians and data scientists to engage more deeply in the research that is critical to society proactively and successfully addressing the intensifying impacts of climate change.","PeriodicalId":88226,"journal":{"name":"Chance (New York, N.Y.)","volume":"19 1","pages":"31 - 34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85661464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, like precision medicine, PPH risks overselling the value of genomic data to deter¬mine health outcomes, but on a population level. History has shown that over-emphasizing heredity tends to disproportion¬ately harm underserved minorities and disadvantaged communities. Comparing and contrasting cur¬rent PPH with an earlier attempt at using genetics to inform pub¬lic health during the Progressive era (1890–1920) highlights some potential risks of genotype-driven preventive public health.","PeriodicalId":88226,"journal":{"name":"Chance (New York, N.Y.)","volume":"6 1","pages":"25 - 27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78456993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Albert Einstein famously called quantum entanglement “spooky action at a distance.” In “Quantum Entanglement” (The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, Penguin Random House, 2020), author Jed Brody says, “Two particles are entangled if the measurement of one of them, for all practical purposes, instantly affects the other particle over any distance.” We will discuss a connection between random events that, although not on the quantum level, resemble quantum entanglement in some ways.

Hence, statistics forms an integral part of most business curriculum across colleges and universities at both undergraduate and graduate levels. This article explores the different facets of teaching statistics (and data science, by extension) to non-STEM majors at a minority-serving institution located in the western United States. It starts with a brief overview of their business statistics course curriculum along with assessment outcomes reported in recent years. It then presents some of my own research in understanding factors that impact student performance and success in this course for potential early detection of “at-risk” students, the role of academic support services like Supplemental Instruction (or SI) in potentially improving student outcomes, the differences in student outcomes between traditional face-to-face and online sections of the course, and lastly the challenges faced during the virtual instruction period precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic since March 2020. The article concludes with some of my own reflections from teaching this course for over 10 years and the future opportunities to further improve student outcomes in this course, particularly for underserved students.","PeriodicalId":88226,"journal":{"name":"Chance (New York, N.Y.)","volume":"20 1","pages":"27 - 35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77323342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
