The Wisdom of Dr. Losee

~On Mondays and Wednesdays, I attend a required class in "Research Methods", which is a prelude to completing a master's thesis. My instructor, Bob Losee, occasionally throws out gems of wisdom on various topics. Here are a few of his sayings:

Dr Losee on research sampling:
  • "There's nothing magical about samples."

Dr. Losee on causation:
  • "Causation is best done by English majors."

Dr. Losee on money:
  • "You can get fancier if you've got money."

Dr. Losee on sex:
  • "Guess what? Sex is a whole lot in your head."

And my personal favorite, Dr. Losee on variables:
  • "Independent variables are variables that can vary independently."
