@Fabercore In the IPEDS/header file (hd2021, e.g.) there is a code, named opeid for each institution ID; The opeid with last two digits = “00” means this is the mother campus. All institution IDs with the same digits before the last 2 belong to the same multi-campus university.

#econtwitter people working on Education: how do you identify the "main" campus/institution of a multi-campus university (e.g., College Station for Texas A&M)?

🧵A long pause in student debt payments during a high inflation period is like forgiveness since the debt value decreases in real terms. This is the classical effect of inflation on nominal debt. But there is something special about student debt that makes it quite regressive.
The White House 46 Archived@WhiteHouse46

UPDATE: The Administration is extending the pause on federal student loan repayments to allow for the Supreme Court to rule in the case on the student debt relief program. The pause will end no later than June 30, 2023. Payments will resume 60 days after the pause ends.

How much will WH promised student loan forgiveness cost? Distributional implications? Basic questions. WH press release has no cost estimates. If legislated policy, CBO would score expenditure implications. Shouldn’t disclosure standards be at least as high for executive branch?

@sc_cath Nope. Polynomials do a terrible job with kinks and other weird shapes that show up all the time in corporate finance models. Once you have the moment conditions wrong, you'll get bad estimates. I've experimented with this a bit. Lots of time being stuck at home.

…they will not have to repay the marginal dollar, if they earn the same; e.g. more subsidized loans doesn’t induce better education & better outcome, which I know is indeed the case: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…
Sylvain Catherine@sc_cath

4⃣ How can we not anticipate the distortionary effects of such a policy? Student will be encouraged to take more debt since they will not have to repay the marginal dollar, and colleges will have an incentive to further increase tuition.
