Mu Sigma Rho

Mu Sigma Rho is the national honorary society for statistics. The South Carolina Beta Chapter, headquartered at USC, was founded in 1987. Its mission is to promote activities which help in the scholarly development of its members, and contribute to the development of the statistical profession in general. We get together just for fun, sometimes, too! You can contact our advisor Dr. Dewei Wang for more information.
