ATTENTION: Students interested in actuarial science:

• 1. Let me know ASP if you want to take STAT 4372 "Actuarial Science" class this Spring (we need at least 10 students).

• 2. On November 4, the election day, Jerry Tuttle, VP of Reinsurance Co (NY) gives a seminar about actuaries. He also can meet privately with interested students. Let me know ASP so I can arrange this private meeting for you.

   Follow this link for software to book 1.  The file  book1.tar.gz contains
   the compressed version of all the functions while the other files are the
   individual S-Plus functions.  To download a file in netscape press the
   right mouse button over the link to the file and choose save link as and
   tell it to save it to your .Data S-Plus directory.  To  decompress the 
   compressed version download it to your local drive into  your .Data 
   subdirectory.  Then type gunzip  book1.tar.gz,  This should  extract a 
   file called book1.tar Then type tar -xf book1.tar.  This will 
   extract all the individual S-Plus functions.
