Each year the School invites a distinguished statistician to spend a week with us giving three lectures. The series honors Bob Buehler who was a member of our faculty from 1963 to 1988.

It was endowed by his wife's family, the Martins. One lecture is less technical and appropriate for an audience wider than just statisticians.
