My
longtime friend and colleague, Mir Masoom Ali, George and Frances Ball
Distinguished Professor of Statistics, is retiring from Ball State University at the end of the 2006-07
academic year. At that time he will have completed fifty years of service as a
statistician including thirty-eight years at Ball State.
To celebrate his contributions to the University and the profession, his
dedication to his students, and his prolific record of publication, I am
organizing this conference in his honor. Please find further information
