Presentations by CMC faculty members, as well as other noted economists, made for an insightful and newsworthy conference. Forecasters say the region's economy will brighten (with predictions of the region's unemployment rates shrinking from 13 percent this year to 11.4 percent in 2013), but progress will be slow, says Marc Weidenmier, the William F. Podlich '66 Professor of Economics, George R. Roberts Fellow, and director of the Lowe Institute of Political Economy. Full Story |

  En Massie: A Prominent Biographer Hosts Informal Chat with CMCers The morning after his Athenaeum dinner address, Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer Robert K. Massie III sat with a group of students and faculty in Parents Library to talk candidly and informally about the process of writing. The famed writer also welcomed questions, happily offered advice to aspiring students, and told the story of how he was enlisted––even against his initial wishes––to write his newest biography, Catherine the Great: Portrait of a Woman (Random House, 2012). This short video captures some of those generous moments with Massie, whose visit to campus was sponsored by the family of Benjamin Z. Gould Center for Humanistic Studies.

If you'd like to be one of them, act fast. Full Story  An Exit Interview with Rep.

In February, Dreier announced he would not seek re-election, ending a three-decade-long career with the House of Representatives. Full Story |
