2026 Feb Webinar: What Christians Should Know About AI

Stefan Jungmichel (Biola University) will give a webinar presentation on his book, What Christians Should Know About AI. Released in 2025, our ICS leadership team is confident that this is a timely discussion for our group. AI impacts each one of us, and we need a biblical framework to help us think about our work as we steward and interpret data. All ICS members are invited to attend this talk, even if you have not yet read the book.

2025 JSM and Monday Annual Meeting

2025 Annual Meeting PPT slides

2025-2026 ICS Theme

We had 19 statisticians attend the annual meeting on Monday night, based on the attendance sheet.
We had 55 statisticians sign up for the monthly newsletter and are willing to connect with ICS. Welcome on board, our new members!
We had 16 statisticians sign up for our one-on-one mentoring program (14 prospective mentees and 2 prospective mentors).
Many of our free pens and Bibles were taken during JSM. At the end, only a few copies of the Bible are left. English Bibles (the book of John) were all gone! That is great!
