Quantitative Professional Seminar

Announcements

Jef Kahn noted a very interesting article in gradPSYCH: The magazine of the American Psychological Association of Graduate Students on the demand for quantitative psychologists.

Please note that Nick updated us on the article for his presentation and discussion yesterday, the day before his talk. I extend apologies from Nick to the group for the inconvenience caused by reading the wrong article.
