Ozimek on the Sheepskin Effect, by Bryan Caplan February 10, 2012
I think the sheepskin effect is strong evidence in favor of the signaling model of education. Modeled Behavior's Adam Ozimek's not so sure:[W]hat does it tell you about someone when they have invested a lot of money into college, come very close to collecting the payoff, but then failed to do so 75% through their senior year? Is the only differenc […]

I'm guessing that Scheiber's best sources were the Treasury folk, because they come off looking the best -- advising O […]
The rule of law? February 10, 2012
Greece’s largest police union has threatened to issue arrest warrants for officials from the country’s European Union and International Monetary Fund lenders for demanding deeply unpopular austerity measures.

“XXXX is becoming more and more convinced that Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok‘s textbook is the big news in the field of economics education.
