Class survey
Fall 2013 Sta 101 students came up with survey questions on the first day of class. An anonymous survey using these questions was then administered on Sakai, and the data file below includes the responses to the survey questions. Some observations and variables have been dropped due to identifiability issues. A list of variables and the survey questions they correspond to are also given below.
