This happened to me too. A grad school professor sat me down in a meeting and told me that I “didn’t have what it takes” to be an economist. Then he asked “so what are you going to do now?” I said “I’m going to go cry in the bathroom and then I’m going to get back to work.”

We recently learned that a student was planning a mass shooting at my school. It’s still hard to say those words. For a while I thought “no it’s something else.” But no. He had maps, notes about how to kill the most people. My friends. My students.

And with that I finished something that seemed impossible in August: an entire semester of in-person classes.

Gave a test, had some good ideas, sent some emails, I have a rest day this week, and one of my best friends defended her dissertation so she’s Dr. Best Friend now. It’s 80 degrees in Minnesota so I think it’s time for an Aperol spritz on the porch.

My wonderful department here at St. Olaf is letting me run a “Research Experience” class this January with 13 advanced students who get to learn about research and work on a project with me. So I basically get to run the Luedtke Economic Networks Research Lab for a month!

Genuinely who *is* going to the AEA meeting? As a person who finally got a paper accepted, I’m starting to feel pretty bummed out.

Shortly after I found out I was pregnant, I learned that some of my professor friends were also expecting. Having these pregnancy buddies made a very hard year so much better. And now those buddy babies have all arrived! This is Baer and his friends, Gabe and Amelia!

The AEA Summer Program is an amazing opportunity and I’m very grateful we have it. However, my students that would benefit the most from it and would be the strongest applicants are international first-gen women who don’t have 25 grand lying around.

From a Math professor who was on an Econ search committee a few months ago, still looking a little shell-shocked: “I mean they REALLY use the parlance. Like they would say ‘what’s the opportunity cost of inviting this person instead of this one?’”

I was trying to think of the jargony word(s) I use most often (or have to stop myself from using), in "normal" conversation. Exogenous/endogenous? Ex-ante/ex-post? Marginal? What about you?
