@TarikuaErda This paper looks super cool! Thanks for sharing and good luck on the market.

I’m on the #EconJobMarket! I study labor, climate, entrepreneurship & innovation My JMP addresses a long-standing question in climate economics about the impact of climate change on physical capital (e.g., machinery, buildings). I examine the impact of flooding on manufacturing firms’ capital and productivity. Do flooded firms/regions build back better? Or do their losses instead weaken their growth and aggregate productivity? tarikuaerda.com/jmp 🧵 1/n

1/ Excited to share my JMP! I study how the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA)—which taxed nonprofit salaries over $1M—reshaped college leadership. Using a natural experiment, I explore how financial incentives impact presidents’ pay, exits, and priorities. 🧵

Online sports betting has been really bad for financially vulnerable households. "Following legalization, sports betting spreads quickly..." "...credit card debt increases, available credit decreases, and overdraft frequency rises." nber.org/papers/w33108

🚨Thrilled to share our new paper "Causal Claims in Economics"! 🚨 @fetzert and I analysed over 44,000 economics papers using AI to create a knowledge graph of economics and map out causal relationships. Here's what we found 🧵👇

@scottlangford22 Exactly! Just put a damn dot in the county weighted by the shift

@JohnConz Just realized this provide no more information than colors lol

Shit, I just remembered we have to look at these god awful arrow charts for the next 3 months post election. These are as bad as political text messages for me

@Watch_LFC @KhoaVuUmn do your thing!

New #lfc meme reaction just dropped

New research paper alert! 🚨 I've combined economics with ideas from biochemists and medical doctors to explore what's driving obesity and other metabolic diseases. The main finding? Vegetable seed oils seem to play a big role. 🌱🛢️ (1/25) tyleransom.github.io/research/obesi…

@toddrjones @kn_owled_ge If it’s a one-off I typically won’t do anything. Multiple times (eg, medical) I give them a worksheet to do on the missed material and grade on completion (intro micro with very small class size).

@kn_owled_ge How do you handle valid excused absences?

If you teach intro micro or intro macro, is attendance part of a student's grade?

Today, we are launching the Postsecondary Equity & Economics Research (PEER) Center out of @AU_SPA with @gwtrachtenberg. Details here: american.edu/media/news/202…

@riacton Right? I was shocked

@JohnConz Wasn’t “okay boomer” a whole meme not that long ago?? Was that just among us millenials?? Yeesh

millennial on mean girls day 🤝 econ prof with an exam to give

@riacton Well that’s good to know. Mine don’t know what a “baby boomer” is, so I’ve lost confidence in providing references outside of the last 5 years.

Pleased to report that the Gen Zers still know Mean Girls & laughed at this!

UNC Public Policy's @SteveHemelt and Ph.D. Alum @JohnConz were featured in WSJ Article. The article discussed students' recent shift to attending southern universities and used the two’s work to discuss the potential economic impact this shift could have. wsj.com/us-news/educat…

@cpdurrance @UWLaFollette @WiscCORE @IRP_UW @UW_CDE Yay! Congrats, Christine! That’s awesome

Fall 2024: I have a new office and new title. It’s been a fantastic 4yrs at UW Madison. I am grateful to my colleagues @UWLaFollette, @WiscCORE, @IRP_UW, @UW_CDE. It takes an academic village to live this life; grateful for the support and doing my best to pay it forward.

@ZhongJiee @Miami_Econ @jasonmlindo I hope your semester is off to a fantastic start!

Super excited to join this wonderful team with awesome students, friendly colleagues, supportive leadership, and beautiful campus🤩🤩. When I got the interview email from @Miami_Econ last year, my advisor @jasonmlindo said this would be a wonderful place for me. Here I am.

@riacton @Miami_Econ Yay!! Best of luck, neighbor

First teaching day of the semester. Time to kick off year 5 (!?!?) with @Miami_Econ!

Very nice article in Washington Monthly about the return on investment to regional universities that draws on my research with @kevin_stange, @SteveHemelt, @andrewrsimon, and @JohnConz. washingtonmonthly.com/2024/08/25/tho… 1/5
