National Awards & Honors — North Liberty
North Liberty's honors ledger is short and, in one entry, easy to get wrong — which is why this section is kept from the grantors' own records. The town holds three Daytime Emmy nominations that a circulating claim inflates into wins, and this section prints the Academy's version. It holds a presidency of the American Statistical Association, a field's highest office, carried by a man born here. Everything else in the standard suite was tested class by class, and the empty lines print as empty lines.

The field-specific highest honor: the presidency of the American Statistical Association
1983
Richard Loree Anderson, born in North Liberty on 16 November 1917, was president of the American Statistical Association in 1983. The ASA's own fellows-and-presidents register carries the presidency, as the famous-people leg establishes; Anderson, professor of statistics at the University of Kentucky from 1967 to 1986 and an author of standard texts in experimental design, also stands in the Association's fellowship. The leg's discipline asks for the signature profession's top honor, tested for whatever field the town actually produces; for North Liberty that field is, improbably, statistics. The town's second born-here statistician, Virgil L. Anderson of Purdue (1920–1999), co-author with Robert A. McLean of Design of Experiments: A Realistic Approach (1974), holds no comparable national office in the record reached, and none is claimed for him.
