RE:       ME Summer Institute Meeting


     The NBER Program in Monetary Economics, which meets three times a year,
is a forum for both regular members of the program and guests to present recent
research on monetary economics and monetary policy.

     We will be having a meeting from Monday, July 16 to Friday, July 20, 
2001, in Cambridge, MA.  If you have a paper that you think might be appropriate
for this meeting, please send a copy to me at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public
and International Affairs, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544.  To be
considered for this meeting, your paper must arrive no later than MARCH 16,
2001.

     Please note that due to time constraints, you will hear from the NBER only if
your paper is included on the program.  Also, please note that attendance at these
meetings is severely limited.  It is impossible to invite everyone who expresses an
interest in coming.

     I look forward to seeing your work.
