>
> Eight major statistics departments in the midwest are sponsoring the  
> midwest statistics research
> colloquium. The colloquium is very broadly inclusive and recognizes  
> the importance of both first rate
> theoretical work and serious and original applied work. The program  
> of the colloquium reflects our
> appreciation of both theory and applications of statistics.
>
> We are holding this colloquium to give visibility to quality  
> research by students and faculty at all levels
> in some seventy departments in the midwest, and also to give  
> everyone a chance to form new
> friendships, new collaborations, and obtain new ideas without having  
> to travel a very large distance. We
> also want participants to enjoy a day of relaxation in a scholarly  
> environment.
>
> The statistics department at the University of Chicago is  
> voluntarily shouldering a huge amount of the
> organizational responsibility of the meeting. It is planned that the  
> next meeting, tentatively scheduled
> for October, 2008, will also be held at the University of Chicago  
> campus. We expect to announce more
> details in May or June, 2008.
>
> Registration is free, but online registration is mandatory of all  
> participants. The total number of
> registrations will be capped at about 100 this time. Registration
