• description: the workshop format is to give one or two graduate students per meeting the opportunity to present anything from an outline of a research idea based on a thorough literature discussion to a ready job-market paper. the workshop is intended to integrate graduate students from all stages in the program so that there is a strong flow of ideas and participation. students can present the same paper more than once over the course of several quarters so that feedback can be incorporated as work progresses. lunch will not be supplied, but everyone is welcome to bring lunch.
