[Khoa Vu @KhoaVuUmn]

Have you ever wondered whether higher education can be an important driver of growth in developing countries?

My job market paper tries to answer this question by looking at a national expansion of higher ed in Vietnam.

Over 100 new universities were opened during 2006-2013!

@jenniferdoleac Happy birthday!

[Stephanie McCurry @smccurry3]

A must read. I find this personally painful. There is so little real understanding of what wealth and privilege mean for those who don’t have it in the academy. I have it now but didn’t when I had to make my way. Solidarity first gens! https://t.co/fZN3qPl4gc

[Ryan Rholes @RRholes]

JMP: The Effect of Teacher Strikes on Support for Schools

[Roberto Mosquera @robmun12]

If you are at #SEA2021 come see some great research on Monday

[Roberto Mosquera @robmun12]

Here’s a thread a made a while ago with the main results. The punchline: exposure to a resource boom can decrease completed education measured 40 years after the boom

[Roberto Mosquera @robmun12]

At #SEA2018, I presented my JMP "A Blessing or a Curse? The Long-term Effect of Resource Booms on Human Capital and Living Conditions." A long-standing question in development economics is if resource abundance is a blessing or a curse for a country (Sachs and Warner, 1999).

[Roberto Mosquera @robmun12]

Excited that my JMP finally found a home!! It just was accepted at Labour Economics. I’m grateful for the valuable feedback I got from referees and the editor. It really improved the paper

[Jennifer Doleac @jenniferdoleac]

As placement director at @TAMUECON this year, I'm delighted to tell you about our PhD students on the job market. Please read on!
