摘要：I remember the early days of JSE as both an exciting and a scary time; it really felt like we were entering uncharted territory. I’m sure that starting any new journal would be somewhat intimidating, but our decision to use the electronic medium at a time when there were very few examples of successful electronic journals made the enterprise seem that much more daring. We started JSE to provide a publication outlet for scholarly work in statistics education, but we also introduced other innovations of which I am very proud. In addition to being the first electronic journal in statistics, I believe that we were the first statistics journal to use double-blind refereeing. We also implemented the practice of sharing referees’ reports (anonymously) among all referees in an effort to improve the quality of those reports. From the start, we encouraged participation in the journal by a wide and international audience by making widespread appeals for referees, authors, and readers, and by introducing technical innovations carefully and slowly so that the journal would remain accessible to a broad audience. It is amazing and gratifying to see that, 20 years later, JSE is still thriving, growing, and innovating
