Since 1975 the #EKU Center for Economics Education has been providing teachers the tools they need to teach economics, and much more. This school year, we're celebrating 45 years of service. Congratulations! stories.eku.edu/programs/eku….
Happy Birthday to me - the EKU Center for Economic Education! During the office move this summer, we uncovered this press release from when the Center was established in 1975! The Center started in the College of Business, and now it's back home! #ekueconed
