Buz’s Challenges

Earl ‘Buz’ Hunt, who passed away last spring at age 83, was the first elected President of ISIR and a long-time prominent member before that. He was perennially curious about human intelligence and how we use it and outspoken with comments and questions at ISIR talks. He repeatedly challenged the field and ISIR’s members to address the questions he found most important and pressing. This symposium features three members who embraced his challenges, and one who has particular perspective on how the rest of us are doing with his challenges.
