RE: Call for Papers
We are organizing the Spring Program Meetings of the NBER Children and NBER
Economics of Education program. The meetings will be held jointly at the
Bureau's Cambridge offices on Thursday, April 1 and Friday, April 2. You
are invited to participate in both days of the meeting.
We welcome submissions of papers in all areas of research related to
children and education: human capital, school finance, education
production, growth and development models that depend on education, and
educational policy and outcomes generally. If you have a paper that meets
the guidelines for both the Education and Childrens programs, so much the
better, but it need not. Please submit your paper to both of us so that it
is easier for us to coordinate the schedules.
If you have seen an interesting paper that you think appropriate, please
let us know. You should feel free to circulate this notice to others,
especially young members of the profession and/or potential members of the
NBER.
If you have a paper that would be suitable for presentation, please send
the paper or an abstract of it to both of us:
