Purpose of the Second Annual Statistics Day is to increase students and faculty awareness of the important role that statistics plays in our everyday lives; particularly its uses in a variety of disciplines.  You may think you don't use statistics yourself (a misconception in its own right) but rest assured statistics is being used on you!!
