The Occasional is back!

Come join us by the ocean in Santa Barbara for 2 days of great env. & resource econ papers.

Superb papers, casual setting, supportive crowd.

Great setting to connect (in-person!) with friends, old and new.

PhD students encouraged to apply.

[Rick Hornbeck @Rick__Hornbeck]

For PhD students: if you interviewed with a school, but did not get a flyout, those closest to your research probably still think very highly of your work. Many unseen factors go into the job process, but people are excited that you're joining the profession.
