We were honored to host the great @itsafronomics.blacksky.app at Williams this week - what a powerhouse! She shared so much about her journey, her research for her fantastic new book The Double Tax, and how we can make the workplace (and the economics profession) better!
Williams Economics was honored to welcome 2023 Nobel Laureate Professor Claudia Goldin (Harvard) to share her work on "Why Women Won." She shared fascinating trends and patterns, and ended by telling students, "Follow your curiosity. Don't worry about where it will take you!"
