  • 1.  volunteer to judge for TAIG at the JSM!

    Dear all,

    The Text Analysis Interest Group is holding its presentation competition again this year at the JSM!  The competition helps us raise the profile of text analysis within the ASA and generate interest in our interest group among ASA members.  We are looking for judges to help score presentations.  Judges are expected to judge between 3 and 5 presentations, and are encouraged to attend sessions live, if possible, in order to ask questions of the presenter.  Judges will rate presenters on three simple items.  This is a wonderful opportunity for a low-commitment way to get involved in TAIG and help us as we continue to advocate for text analysis within the ASA!

    You can sign up to judge here.

    Thank you!
