STATA help sessions
Note that these sessions are optional, and are designed to help you get familiar with Stata enough to solve homework problems (bring your questions!). All sessions within one week are identical. All notes and worksheets used in these sessions will be posted on this website. We have 2 sessions, in hope that each of you can fit one every week into your schedules (if needed we will add a third):

-- Mondays 2pm-3pm in USITE/Crerar.

-- Tuesdays 12pm-1pm in USITE/Crerar.

-- Thursdays 12pm-1pm in USITE/Crerar.
