Ecstatic to see my job market paper on the development impact blog. I study how we can teach innovation in schools blogs.worldbank.org/impactevaluati… via @worldbank

Take a look at the great job market candidates from EPSA at TC. Got to work with some of these great PhD students during my sabbatical year at Columbia. So excited to see where they land!!

From a recent interview:

Ashenfelter: 'how do you feel about the way you historically were treated in the profession as a woman?'

Goldin: 'I spent six years at Princeton, and not once in the six years that I spent at Princeton was I asked to give a seminar'

JOB ALERT! 🚨 My dept. is hiring an AP in public, enviro, and/or IO.

Miami is an awesome place to work. True research/teaching/life balance. Great colleagues & students. Affordable COL in either a charming college town or nearby Cincy.

Apply & share! aeaweb.org/joe/listing.ph…

Anybody need codes?

I’m going to start being over there more than over here. Same handle. Same content. See you there!

Looks like they keep giving me one more so feel free to continue asking! Will do my best.

Activists claim that children's books are too woke (aka too focused on diversity). Is it true?

Nope. This study from Anjali Adukia Becker Friedman Institute for Economics The University of Chicago shows that for 100 years, white males have been overrepresented

Applying to grad school can be a lot, especially for #firstgen , low-income, and minority students.

#RDDers check it out: 'Donut RDDs'

I've long been (quietly) skeptical of donut RDDs. This paper does little to assuage those concerns.

'We show that donut RD estimators can have substantially larger bias and variance than contentional RD estimators'

Representation is said to matter, but I didn't see myself in the world around me growing up.

Whom did I see? With whom was I supposed to identify? What about my children? And what about in children's books? What do children see? How to measure it?
