If you teach prob/stats to first-year PhD students, and you want to prepare them to really understand regression, go light on measure theory, counting, combinatorics, distributions. Emphasize conditional expectations, linear projections, convergence results. @metricstotheface.

Dick retired just a couple of years after I arrived, but I got to know him well enough to recognize he lived a uniquely full and accomplished life. He was both a war hero and distinguished scholar. RIP Dick.
