🎉 Honoring Excellence in Advocacy for the Liberal Arts 🎉
Last week at the our 60th Annual Meeting in St. Louis, we proudly presented the 2025 Arts & Sciences Advocacy Award to the American Statistical Association - ASA.
Each year, this award recognizes an individual or organization whose work exemplifies exceptional advocacy for the arts and sciences and reflects a deep commitment to the enduring value of liberal arts education.
Founded in 1839, ASA is the world’s largest community of statisticians and data scientists. ASA has become a national voice for the ethical use of data, the integrity of federal statistical agencies, and the central role of evidence-based reasoning in a healthy democracy. ASA’s 2024 report, The Nation’s Data at Risk, stands as a testament to its ongoing advocacy to protect the independence and credibility of federal statistics.
Congratulations to ASA on this well-deserved recognition and thank you for your continued leadership in advancing education, ethics, and the liberal arts ideals that sustain civic trust and informed decision-making.
