Science Spark: Statistics for Non-Mathematicians
Monday June 8 2026 2:00 PM
Sun City Library
Event Description
What is the difference between a "mean' and a "median"? Under what circumstances are each appropriate? In this class we will discuss what is actually meant by the term "statistics" and how the ideas are commonly misused and misunderstood in our culture and media. Registration needed.
