Micro Theory
From Econ
In fall 2008, the micro theory lunch club will meet every Wednesday 12:00 to 1:30 in McNeil 309, where you can present your own theory research, and learn about everyone else's. There will be theory faculty and free food.
To encourage more lively discussion, we will be limiting attendance to faculty and students who have taken an upper-level theory class (such as 708 Contract Theory, 713 Game Theory and 750 Public Economics I). Students who attend are expected to present. Students are also encouraged to present their work at the Shadow workshop, to practice presenting and to get feedback from a wider audience.
You might also be interested in the other seminars and workshops in the department.
Students who are attending are: Andrew Clausen, Antonio Penta, Larbi Alaoui, Xi Weng, Matt Hoelle, Kenny Thierer. (Please add yourself)
