@swarthmoreecon@Caitlin_K_Myers@Middlebury Agree - thanks, @Caitlin_K_Myers! I ran into a student afterward who was every bit as impressed and inspired as I was. And @JoannaVenator, was fun to see a shoutout to you and your work in Caitlin's talk.
@ethan_bergmann @Ellen_Magenheim @swarthmoreecon Thanks, Ethan! This is so kind of you. I’d point out that @swarthmoreecon has some pretty fantastic students, too! This project began over 8 years ago (yikes!), so it’s great to finally see it in print.
Do people allocate their attention optimally? In this paper, @erinbronchetti, @juddkessler, @Ellen_Magenheim, @DTaubinsky, and Eric Zwick develop and deploy a methodology to answer this question. Three complementary experiments reject the hypothesis of full optimality
@Daniel_Laurison Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition of your impactful work and your contributions to the College. Thrilled for you and for us!
Terrific @WSJ piece on Philip Jefferson, former chair @swarthmoreecon and now Fed nominee. Making all of @swarthmore proud! We know Philip can and will do great work for all Americans! 👏👏

@MemeMedianMode@VanderbiltU@vupeabody What a fantastic outcome!!! Congratulations, Mark! A well-deserved culmination of your YEARS of hard work and passion for this area. Love that your title is in Ed Policy and Inequality - perfect (thinking back to your ECO141 paper...).
“Deciding to make children the focus of my research, when there was no ‘field’ for it and no one else was doing it, was one of the hardest decisions I made as a researcher. People told me that it was ‘interesting, but not economics.’" https://t.co/zK6lfPhZv4
