Barbara A. Bailar
[edit]- ... that Barbara A. Bailar resigned in 1988 from the United States Census Bureau to protest a decision not to adjust the 1990 results for systematic undercounting of minorities? Sources: "Barbara Bailar, a top census official, resigned in protest", "she quit her post ... because she believes Republicans in the Commerce Department have political motives in killing a plan to compensate for an expected severe undercount"
- ALT1:... that Barbara A. Bailar is the only person to have been both president and executive director of the American Statistical Association? Source: "She then served as ASA president in 1987, becoming the only person to serve as both president and executive director of the association"
