School has started a week ago. ’nuff said. Just a run-down on other academic blogger sites.
- A Gentleman’s C complains about grouchy professors.
- RateYourStudents discusses the inevitable in academia: return to the classroom and blogging.
- Financial rounds has some interesting posts, one about trading options around take-overs, courtesy of Wall Street Journal, and the joys of academic research. I am more than happy to work with you using that database — man, 200 companies with corporate governance info; I call that Bearls and Means heaven.
- Brad DeLong has an interesting classroom related post on economic growth. What is really cool, though, is the use of Google’s GapMinder application. Wow, that’s a cool way to make statistics palatable.
That’s all for today.
