This project would fund a micro computer classroom/laboratory              dedicated to economics, statistics and quantitative methods, class              support and student research.  The economics and statistics department          currently relies on the campus mainframe computers (Cyber) and standard         academic software (Minitab, SPSS) for course projects in business               statistics and uses programs written by faculty for pedagogical support         in economic theory courses.  This environment is not easy for                   undergraduates to deal with and is not typical of the situation they            will work in after graduation.  Further, the quantitative and                   statistical software being developed for business today is designed for         the stand alone desktop environment.  Micro computers will be                   significantly more "user friendly" and will permit the faculty to               concentrate their instruction on the theory and techniques of the               subject matter without having to teach the student how to use the               computer.
