The purpose of the Marquardt Memorial Industrial Speakers Program is to familiarize graduate students and advanced undergraduates with the role of statisticians in industry.

3.      Considering the amount of effort required to coordinate the visit, was the visit worthwhile? (If no, please explain.)

4.     Would you recommend that we ask this speaker to visit another school in the future? (Why or why not?)

5.      If you could do one thing to improve the Marquardt Memorial Industrial Speakers Program, what would it be?
