Comics about mathematics, science, and the student life.

Regression to the Mean

Left panel: A professor is writing on the board and a student asks, "Professor, can you write a bit bigger?" They say "Sure!" Right panel: The text on the board says "Let x be a random..." The writing gets smaller and smaller until its illegible gibberish.

The recurrences in writing size are a direct imprint of the persistence of students sitting beyond the front row.
