The modern era of Statistics at the University of Washington (UW) began in 1939 with the arrival of Z. W. (Bill) Birnbaum in the Department of Mathematics. There was but a single course in descriptive statistics. Bill began the process that led to the development of one of the first comprehensive undergraduate statistics programs in the United States.
