Hello Paul. I am one of Professor Bryant’s former mentees, and he introduced you to our class sometime during my course work. I graduated from Loyola during 2012 and have been collecting data regarding a human rights issue since then. Upon speaking with Patrick Harrison regarding the data I have been collecting he suggested that I contact you as he believes the best statistical analysis will be Classification Tree Analysis (Patrick was also one of Fred’s mentees). I would be honored to speak with you regarding the project as well as the corresponding dataset. If you are available, please contact me at (360) 603-1021.
That’s nice
