I agree. Algebra based Statistics is one of the things that makes people say "Math is a religion". There is a lot of "just trust me" in statistics when you don't know calculus.

I suppose you could switch Probability & Statistics to "Just Enough Calculus" & Statistics to make it a less religious experience... but that also sort of defeats the "nobody really uses Calculus" mentality.
