"The survey and opinion research profession is thrilled to see Dr. Groves, a widely recognized leader in the field, finally allowed to get to work. With the clock ticking furiously down to Census 2010, there is no time to lose, and we look forward to working with him and the Bureau to make the decennial count as accurate and complete as possible," said Howard Fienberg, Director of Government Affairs at MRA, in a statement.
Groves is a research professor at the University of Michigan, and had served as an associate director of the Census Bureau from 1990 to 1992.--Aaron Baar
