Post-conference get-together with the IU economics department!
Professor Glomm organized dinner and drinks at Morgan Street Brewery following the first day of the MEA 2019 conference in St. Louis, Missouri. It was a great chance to talk with fellow IU colleagues, both past and current, about the earlier panel discussions, presentations and general goings-on of life as an economist. The food was delicious, and the drinks were a nice way to unwind before diving back into research and discussion the next morning for day two of the conference. Thanks to all who came, and I hope we can do this again at MEA 2020!
