U. Chicago Newsletter Article on MFI
Today I received the new Social Sciences Fall/Winter alumni newsletter, Dialogo. The front-page article discusses two new institutes in the division this year, one being the Milton Friedman Institute for Research in Economics. From the article:
The Institute is named for Milton Friedman, AM’33, who taught at Chicago for a significant portion of his academic career and is considered by many to be the leading economist of the 20th century. It will provide resources for University faculty and visiting scholars to engage in research endeavors that cross and transcend traditional academic boundaries. “We see Friedman Institute as a means to encourage interaction across some of the best and most exciting areas of research in economics and related disciplines,” said Lars Hansen…. “It will give us a way to continue to learn about the best new research in a variety of areas and to seek cross-fertilization among important subfield of economics.”
The new issue is not online yet, but when it is, it will be here.
