message: Hello. Based on three general audience news articles today there is some information in place about the subject's work. I have no knowledge of economics and would appreciate any help, additions and corrections by someone who does. Congratulations to those recognized today. -Susanlesch 17:19, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I deleted an assertion that Hurwicz became chair of the School of Statistics at the University of Minnesota in 1961.  The School of Statistics was founded in 1971 under Seymour Geisser.  I suspect Hurwicz was indeed teaching statistics at the Univsersity of Minnesota then, and the assertion was put there by someone who didn't realize that the School of Statistics didn't yet exist.  Also, the picture of Ford Hall is misleading, since the School of Statistics didn't move there until about 2000 or so.  I've deleted that too. Michael Hardy (talk) 18:21, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hello, Michael Hardy. The School of Statistics existed but under another name. It is today in Ford Hall. Unless you have a better photo I think I will restore these deletions. Also I will try to find the former name of the department (whose Web site may have been redesigned since I last looked, we'll see). -Susanlesch (talk) 14:29, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Lacking an updated CV (has anyone a link to one?) the best I think is necessary is the timeline that is used throughout the article. It says "Chairman, Statistics Department, University of Minnesota" 1961. -Susanlesch (talk) 14:33, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
