Welcome to the Mid-Missouri Chapter of the ASA!

The Mid-Missouri Chapter of the American Statistical Association was established in January 1975 to foster interest in statistical methods and applications and to increase the contributions of statistics in the area.  The objectives of the Chapter are to promote unity among analytical professionals, to make information concerning statistical science available in order to stimulate research, to increase the unity and effectiveness of all those in its area who are interested in or concerned with statistical problems and promote high professional standards.  It is our hope to make statistics useful to practical affairs, for the advancement of society as a whole. These include holding meetings; producing publications; participating in educational efforts for its members and for various public groups; providing information concerning the application of statistics; and, in general, serving the community with statistical thinking and making the community aware of statistics as a science.
