Looking to fill those pre-Glee hours?

by Sarah Caldwell | Filed in: Events | 11:05am EST

The countdown to the super-hyped Madonna episode has begun but what to do between quittin’ time and 9:00 PM? How about swinging by PPL at 7:30 to get your double dose of culture for the night!

Poet C.K. Williams reads from his forthcoming PUP book On Whitman , book two in the Writers on Writers series. Known around campus and town as “Charlie,” our award-winning author will answer your questions and sign copies of his newest release AND have you home in time to catch Sue Sylvester vamping it in those Gaultier cones.

C.K. Williams @ PPPL 7:30 PM reading/Q&A/signing

When all else fails and you long to be
Something better than you are today
I know a place where you can get away…

It’s called the library! VOGUE.

The mystery of money February 23, 2012

Griswold on Immigration and the Welfare State, by Bryan Caplan February 23, 2012
Dan Griswold's "Immigration and the Welfare State" was my favorite in the Cato Journal immigration symposium. Highlights:False stereotypes notwithstanding, immigrants have an awesome work ethic:The typical foreign-born adult resident of the United States today is more likely to participate in the work force than the typical native-born Americ […]
Why I like power-hungry bureaucrats more than whistleblowers February 23, 2012
One of my occasional concerns about foreign policy is how ill-conceived, ill-informed, or simply illegal policies get fixed. As I've noted before, one of the problems with relying on whistleblowers is that the kind of person who believes themselves to be a truthteller also tends to have otherbaggage. To the blunt, the personality tropes that permit wh […]
Rudd + Gillard = Rudd* February 22, 2012
A couple of points that have emerged in the debate over the Labor leadership need a response First, there’s the claim that there are no policy differences between Rudd and Gillard.

I've now read the full Cato Journal immigration issue cover-to-cover. Leaving aside my lead article, here are my brief reactions:1. Gordon Hanson, "Immigration and Economic Growth." Pretty good, especially on the interaction between high-skilled native labor and low-skilled immigrant labor:One contribution of low-skilled immigrants is to mak […]
Greek markets in everything February 22, 2012
It’s being called the “negative salary”: Due to austerity measures in Greece, it’s being reported that up to 64,000 Greeks will go without pay this month, and some will have to pay for having a job. Numbers in austerity reports have usually reflected figures in the millions, since they reflect industry-wide cuts (i.e. a 537-million euro cut to […]
