The Senior Statisticians Society held its bimonthly meeting at Maggiano’s Restaurant in Washington, DC, May 11. The meeting was attended by 29 statisticians from academia, the federal government, and the private sector.

The goals of the society, which was founded more than five years ago, are to provide an opportunity for eminent members of the retired statistical community to meet on a regular basis, to keep in touch with each other, to provide a forum for exchanging ideas, and to keep abreast of the latest developments in the statistical community.

Since its founding, the society has grown from a few participants to more than 70 members. If you are interested in attending a future meeting, contact Mel Kollander at mellk@erols.com or Mike Fleming at charles.fleming@bhox.com. Each meeting is limited to 35 attendees, and the next meeting is scheduled for September.
