Incentive compatibility is designing a survey knowing you are going to be analyzing the data


Does anyone have recommendations for transcription services? I have data in scanned PDFs that I'd like to have written to CSVs. #EconTwitter #phdchat #AcademicChatter


My first time teaching was this past Wednesday - discussion section for Intro Macro. After class a student said "thank you, this was fun!" I've been riding that high ever since.

As a bishop in the Episcopal Church, and an American citizen, I am shaken watching protestors in Lafayette Park gassed and cleared so that the President of the United States can do a photo op in front of St. John's Episcopal Church holding a Bible.This is blasphemy in real time.


Take a look at one of the first year PhDs in @aceatIL! Kaylee is a great classmate.

So honored to have received the Louis V. Logeman teaching award this past week. Our students are amazing, our department is amazing, our college is amazing, going to miss this place.


The illusion of time becomes all the more apparent during an international layover. Breakfast on the flight, then breakfast in the airport two hours later? Yes, please, I’m hungry. Coffee, then an “extra cold” Heineken before the flight? Why not.
