It's hard to understand why an economics professor showing concern for a student would be thrown to the ground and arrested. This is not an obvious way to defuse a crisis.

Great thread on how to set your paper up to be picked up by put reviews/meta analyses but also just really good best practices in general!!
@leightjessica When my daughter was about 4, she asked if mom and dad would still help the kids when they are grown up. My son, two years older, replied: “Ella. When you and me are grown-ups, mommy and daddy are going to be DEAD.” She seemed to accept this as enough information, and moved on.
@leightjessica When my oldest son was about five we had a similar conversation. He asked if we could be buried side by side so we could still hold hands in death.

🆕 Academic evidence and expert advice on the research to policy pipeline In this blog, Managing Editor @oliverhanney collects the evidence and opinion he has been reading on the research to policy pipeline. Read here: voxdev.org/topic/academic…
This is a big mistake. It should be obvious that the bar for arresting your own students should be extremely high! Yet Princeton keeps it broad saying
@Princeton Hassan Sayed, a fifth year PhD candidate in economics, and Achinthya Sivalingan, a SPIA MPA second year, have been arrested, evicted, and permanently banned from the @Princeton campus, thereby preventing them from finishing their degrees.
It's hard to understand why an economics professor showing concern for a student would be thrown to the ground and arrested. This is not an obvious way to defuse a crisis.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
Nemat Shafik - @Columbia Prez only has 1 well-cited publication in her life, in Oxford Econ Papers 1994. This paper is lifted almost entirely from a 1992 report coauthored with consultant not credited in the publication. This is wholesale intellectual theft, not subtle plagiarism
The protestors' encampment at Yale looks like a peaceful gathering of people from diverse backgrounds (middle America, Korea, South Asia, Jews, Muslims, non-religious) concerned about thousands of children being murdered in Gaza. Books not bombs. Even pathways to bldgs are clear.
The large-scale deployment of armed officers to suppress peaceful protest on college campuses around the country is a shocking development. This response to peaceful protest is an assault on free speech–and it is also deeply reckless. (1/x)
What in the hell is happening in this country?
@MiddleEastEye Here’s @EmoryUniversity economics professor Caroline Fohlin knocked to the ground with her head on the concrete. Her glasses are thrown off. She shouts “I’m a professor” #Gaza #Protesters
FIRE is deeply concerned by law enforcement actions to detain student protesters at Emory University, including the deployment of tear gas and tasers. While colleges may restrict conduct — such as establishing encampments — that violates reasonable, viewpoint-neutral policies,…
@leightjessica A simple index card. Problem is when I lose them.
Happy to note that @iza_bonn have invited me to join their network as a Research Affiliate. It's hard to overstate the impact of mentors and champions who believe in my work. I'm deeply grateful to @cbatista_econ & @Prof_Nishith_P for the nomination, advice, and guidance.

@FrancoPF @leightjessica @KaOrtizb This is a very nice paper. In our lit review of 114 RCT studies in dev. econ. from top journals, only 4 didn't report any attrition, & 18% didn't report rates by treatment. I think the real issue is the variation in how attrition is measured and reported.
