Beth Chance
Beth Chance always had a talent for mathematics and a love for human learning, but was never sure what she could “do” with them. Eventually, she discovered she could teach statistics and make it as applicable as possible to anyone who will listen. This past year, she received the Text and Academic Authors Association Award for Most Promising New Textbook.
