The records below provide interesting glimpses into the history of the Statistical Engineering Division from different points of view. Being recently assembled from materials kept by different Division or NIST staff members over the years, these records are bound to contain some inadvertent omissions or minor errors (remember, random errors occur everywhere and are what keeps us in business!). We apologize in advance and kindly request to be informed of any corrections that are needed. To provide a correction, please just contact any member of the SED staff who will transmit the corrected information to one of our web site content editors so they can update these living documents.
