RE:
Revised Call for Papers

The Spring 2004 Productivity Program meeting will be held on Friday, March
12, 2004 at the Cambridge office of the NBER. The director of the program,
Ernst Berndt and Chad Syverson will coorganize the meeting.

Rather than adhering to a strict theme that day, we will try to put
together a productivity potpourri program. Anyone interested in presenting
a paper should send an abstract or, preferably, a draft of the paper to
Ernst Berndt and Chad Syverson. Please send a copy to both of them as soon
as possible, but no later than January 28. The program will be finalized
by February 6 and a discussant will be assigned to each paper. Final drafts
of the papers are due to the NBER by February 26.

If any of your colleagues have research that is appropriate for these
meetings, please pass this announcement to them. If you have any questions
about the program for this meeting please contact Ernst Berndt or Chad
Syverson at:
