"Throughout our lives we have each had & will have, regular opportunities calls to serve in myriad ways that we myopically never thought within our capacity to accomplish. And yet, following that assignment, we are strengthened, and our capacity increased." - Kevin Utt

@JeffDenning You will be dearly missed :)

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

I'll be sad to leave @BYUecon. BYU econ is where I learned economics from great faculty who became my colleagues. I have spent something like 11 of the last 16 years at BYU. It was a great place to start my career and I am a huge fan of BYU economics.

Tomorrow! All students are invited :)

It's that time of year where it feels like you're spending more time in the library than at home and you're pretty sure you're wearing down your keyboard from typing so much. Happy reading day!

Have six minutes to spare? Take a look at this article written by current BYU Economics student Spencer Timmerman! Just one perspective on why students should study economics in general, and why they should consider BYU Economics specifically.

The Econ Department just got a refresh with a new mural in our main hallway. The design for this mural originated within our department and features over fifty graphs that we hope any lover of economics will enjoy. Come visit the West View Building and let us know what you think!
