@SouthwestAir new business model is garbage. Since charging for bags, I have not been on a flight where we have "limited overhead space" and "weight and balance issues." Staff shame people into checking their carry-ons to avoid delays. This was a non-issue with free bags. Shame.
Check out my new article with @EconSargent ! We use a gravity model to show that length and era of colonial occupation impact future migration rates from Africa to Europe in nonlinear ways. A tiny step forward in unpacking the economic effects of a complicated colonial history.
🚨🚨New article available online! 🚨🚨

When I got an email today saying that we should make ourselves available for office hours in the student dorms (like students ordering help via room service), I thought for sure @ass_deans had hijacked the email distribution list! Nope...it was real 🤦♂️ – at Cincinnati, OH
Check out our @nberpubs working paper!
Violence in a municipality during the Mexican Revolution led to a short-run increase in migration to the US of 60 percent, before reverting to pre-violence levels after 5 months, from @drescamillag, Edward lKosack, and @EconZach nber.org/papers/w31531

I look at it as I GET to attend graduation every year! It is the best day of the year seeing everyone so happy and excited. Frankly, it makes me sad that so many of my colleagues skip one of the most important parts of our job.

Every time I hear someone on the phone "conducting business" at the airport, I count myself lucky that I don't have to conduct business...🙄
Life is for enjoying...I'll take this instead.

A well earned shout out to both Dr. Thomas Lebesmuehlbacher and Dr. Jae Hoon Choi on receiving tenure and promotion to the rank of Associate Professor. Congratulations! #xavierprofessors #xueconomics
Will @altafiber issue credits on our bills for a prolonged outage? Prices go up and quality of service goes down. Not impressed. – at Cincinnati, OH
