Macro Lunch Group Spring 2009
Columbia Macro Lunch Group
This lunch is organized by Stephen Zeldes. It is for faculty, and selected 4th and 5th year PhD students, from the Business School, the Arts and Sciences Economics Department, and the Barnard Economics Department. We will meet for lunch each Tuesday, from 12:30 - 1:45 pm. Lunch will be provided each week free of charge. Most weeks, someone will give an informal presentation of research in progress related (loosely) to macroeconomics.
