Congratulations to Lynne Billard for winning the 2008 Elizabeth L. Scott Award from the Committee of Presidents of Statistical Societies. This award, given every other year to only one winner, recognizes exemplary efforts to further the careers of women in academia.
Replacing Jesse will be Jimmy Cretney who is promoted to the IT Manager position. Jimmy has also been with us for several years, and we welcome his continued skill and familiarity with our department. Congratulations Jimmy!
This July, Jesse Bowling left our department as IT Manager to take a position over in EITS. Jesse was with us for many years, and was a valuable asset to our department. His skills and light-hearted disposition will be missed. We also wish him the best with his new marriage!
