Tl;dr: We will host a Google Hangout of our popular JSM session October 30th 2-4 PM EST.
I organized a session at JSM 2015 called “The statistics identity crisis: am I really a data scientist?” The session turned out to be pretty popular:

but it turns out not everyone fit in the room:
This is the closest I can get to @statpumpkin's talk. #jsm2015 still had no clue how to predict session attendance. pic.twitter.com/gTb4OqdAo3

Thankfully, Steve Pierson at the ASA had the awesome idea to re-run the session for people who couldn’t be there. So we will be hosting a Google Hangout with the following talks:
| 'Am I a Data Scientist?': The Applied Statistics Student's Identity Crisis — Alyssa Frazee, Stripe | |
| How Industry Views Data Science Education in Statistics Departments — Chris Volinsky, AT&T | |
| Evaluating Data Science Contributions in Teaching and Research — Lance Waller, Emory University | |
| Teach Data Science and They Will Come — Jennifer Bryan, The University of British Columbia |
You can watch it on Youtube or Google Plus. Here is the link:
