Missed Leah Boustan's AEA Distinguished Lecture at the conference? Watch it here: www.aeaweb.org/webcasts/202...

Her new findings on recent immigrant assimilation patterns across Europe show some similarities, but also some critical differences compared to the US.

Excited to present at #ASSA2026 tomorrow!

Come to the Marriott a few minutes before the AEA Distinguished Lecture, and I'll explore how imperfect skill transferability (think: taxi-driving doctors) might explain some of the patterns shown by Leah Boustan and her colleagues

One reason why elite schools (Columbia, Brown, Cornell) caving to Trump’s illegal impoundment and extortion is so galling — a betrayal, really — is that they would have won had they fought. By giving up, they guaranteed every other school will have to fight harder.

The Cornell AAUP chapter has consistently stated that any deal with the Trump administration would be strategically unwise and a betrayal of Cornell’s principles. This remains the case. At best, we can say that this deal could have been worse.

Despite finding no violations of the law, Cornell will make a direct $30 million direct payment "as a condition for ending pending claims."

There's a job posting for a Grok "AI tutor" on the American Economics Association website. No salary, benefits, or job security.

It's gig work for PhDs. Are we really doing this?
