I'm fortunate to have wonderful students, colleagues, and children!

[Noam Angrist @angrist_noam]

So proud to celebrate my father @metrics52 at his Festschrift -- a gathering of people and presentations in honor of his career and legacy. He has influenced so many: generations of Angrists and a rockstar student family tree. An impressive array of causal effects!

[Josh Angrist @metrics52]

definitely underappreciated

[Benjamin Manning @BenSManning]

IMO the best part of every @metrics52 paper is that they are just so well-written. Economics aside, he's a prose master.

Caveat: I'm actually unsure if this is an underappeciated or well know fact! @instrumenthull enlighten me?

[MIT Blueprint Labs @BlueprintMIT]

How can researchers and practitioners collaborate to implement accurate school quality measures?

In this SAQ kickoff session, Blueprint Director @metrics52 and SAQ Fellow Aurora Moraes discussed their research and implementation of new measures in New York City.

⭐ VoxTalks Economics NEW EPISODE ⭐

Does being accepted on an elite PhD program or working with a superstar advisor guarantee you are going to have a successful research career? Probably not, @metrics52 @MITEcon & @MarcDiederichs University of Passau tell @timsvengali @cepr_org

[Peter Hull @instrumenthull]

📢 New Working Paper, with @metrics52, Russell Legate-Yang, @prof_parag, and @c_r_walt: "Putting School Surveys to the Test"

We use random variation in the NYC school assignment system to see how well public school survey responses predict long-run effects on college attainment

Bottom line: while surveys are predictive on some outcomes, parents hoping to boost their child's college attainment benefit more from conventional test score value-added models
