The ASA Committee on Minorities in Statistics is accepting applications for the 2014 JSM Diversity Mentoring Program. The program will match faculty and professional statisticians with students for a four-day mentoring experience during the 2014 Joint Statistical Meetings in Boston. The aim of the program is to increase under-represented minority presence in the statistics profession—among faculty, in government, and in the private sector and to provide support and enable success of early-career statisticians from underrepresented groups.
The application deadline is June 15 for full consideration. The application form is available online. More information may be found on the Committee on Minorities in Statistics website. Questions may be addressed to Marcia Gumpertz at gumpertz@ncsu.edu.
