... Math Pathways approach offers students the option of taking alternatives to algebra such as statistics and quantitative reasoning, according to its 2018 brief... If they can't pass algebra, they won't be able to pass statistics either.

If they can't pass algebra, they won't be able to pass statistics either. Colleges have long had what I call kiddie stats. The prerequisite is a warm body willing to take on a mountain of debt with a probability significantly lower than 1 to repay that debt. Stats at the college level needs to be calculus based. Colleges should be aiming high. It’s not called lower learning for a reason.
