Our first-year graduate statistics course (in psychology) is
taught by Prof. Paul Rosenbaum, in the statistics department.
Last year (according to my students), he discouraged students
from using R for their homework. He told them it was too hard.
Now he is again teaching the course, recommending R, and making
the homework data available in an R-friendly format (i.e., not
xls or JMP format). The student culture is changing too. They
help each other.
