On the heels of my post about the excellent lecture series going on in Kansas City, I would be remiss not to mention the upcoming fourth installment of the Show-Me Institute’s Lecture Series on Economic Policy, which is co-hosted by Saint Louis University’s John Cook School of Business. On Tuesday, May 5, Dr. Caroline Hoxby will deliver a lecture titled “The Promise and Performance of Charter Schools: Drivers of Educational Improvement in the U.S.?”
Dr. Hoxby is the Scott and Donya Bommer Professor of Economics at Stanford University, a senior fellow of the Hoover Institution, the director of the Economics of Education Program at the National Bureau of Economic Research, and senior fellow of the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research. It is extremely exciting that a scholar of her prestige will be presenting here in St. Louis, so I encourage all of you to RSVP today!
