Dear IFM members:
I am afraid that I erred in saying that approval was "virtually
guaranteed" for grad student nominations received by May 21. I was basing
this judgment on last year's rate of take-up on the offer. But I have
been flooded with nominations this year. Which is a good thing. Except
that we are already way over our limit. So I am afraid that I have to
close the list now.
I apologize to anyone who was hoping to nominate somebody and now
cannot.
I look forward to seeing you in July, if not before.

Fw: grad students at summer
institute
Send me nominations for grad students you would like to bring.
Last year we did not quite reach the limit of ten.
If I were to receive more than ten nominations, then I would like
information (e.g., a CV) to decide.
Let's say the deadline for "round one" of nominations -- where approval is
virtually guaranteed -- is May 21.

grad students at summer institute
As a reminder:
Last summer's experiment with inviting grad students from outside Cambridge
to the summer institute was widely seen as a success. We will do it again
this year. I leave it to each of you to solicit names. I think we limited
it to 10 per program. The NBER only pays for their lunches.
