#2 I still don't know what this boondoggle hopes to accomplish or why it's needed. Here's the gobbledygook: It "is part of the NGA College’s Learning Outreach program that partners with qualified academic institutions and industry partners to address key education and training gaps within the NGA, according to the release. Mizzou will provide a comprehensive data science education program that includes databases and programming, statistical analyses and predictive modeling, data visualization and data mining, cloud-based computing, and machine learning among other specialties... Personally, I think it is just a way of filtering money to the miserable U. of Missouri.
