I presented at my first ASHEcon this week! Thank you to Morgan Kearns for organizing the session, Eilidh Geddes for serving as discussant, Ashley Bradford for chairing, and everyone who attended and contributed to the discussion. I'm grateful for such a welcoming experience!

If you're still at #ASHEcon2026, let me shamelessly plug two of my presentations: 930am: does congestion explain why veterans tend to see lower quality providers in the VA's community care network? 1230pm: how has Medicaid expansion affected hospitals' bad debt & charity costs pre/post COVID-19?

So weird: there's more than one scammy memorial site inviting donations or tree-planting in my dad's memory. We are not asking for that, but if people feel moved, donations in lieu of flowers to www.aclu-mn.org, www.aclu.org, or www.eff.org Econ folks, can you help get the word out?

We -are- all proud of his scholarship, but we are (and he was/would have been) much more pleased that he is repeatedly and consistently remembered as kind, generous to students and junior colleagues, ethical, and a supportive if occasionally challenging collaborator.

My favorite Chris Sims story is from the day he won the Nobel. I was in his advanced macro class which he was coteaching with Tom Sargent (who also won). The two alternated lectures but both came to every class. That night was Sargent’s, but Sims was there anyway! May his memory be for a blessing.

International recognition for AJHE! The Australian Business Deans Council Journal Quality List has upgraded AJHE from A to A*. It reflects sustained improvements in quality and impact. Huge credit to @davidslusky.bsky.social and Australia and NZ–based economists, led by Jenny Williams (Melbourne).

Y’all, this CSWEP newsletter is a banger. Five women economists generously share their stories about navigating family and career. 🔥 @jialanw.bsky.social @kmpjones.bsky.social Sarah Hamersma, Kosali Simon, and Sarah Baird. It was an honor to "edit" (which mostly involved sitting back for good reads)
