Congratulations to Holt Endowed Fellowship Recipients  

Congratulations to the first recipients of the Holt Endowed Fellowship! The Holt Endowed Fellowship supports international learning experiences and is awarded to students and faculty who demonstrate a commitment to deepening their understanding of global citizenry, increasing their multicultural competencies, and immersing themselves in the ideas, customs, and languages of other cultures.
The Holt Endowed Fellowship was established earlier this year, and HSB is pleased to announce the first fellows: MBA students Amanda Hedin, Megan Lopez, Emily Peterson, Robert Venters, Trong Ha and Byronie Richards.
Ann Holt, who established the fellowship in memory of her parents, visited HSB in July and attended a luncheon with Dean Julian Schuster and four of the Holt Fellows. (Pictured, from left to right, are: HSB Dean Julian Schuster, Megan Lopez, Emily Peterson, Ann Holt, Amanda Hedin, Bob Venters)

Jack Reardon Forms New Journal on Economics Education 

HSB Economics Professor Jack Reardon has formed a new journal on economics education.  The journal is titled The International Journal of Pluralism and Economics Education (IJPEE). 

The objectives of IJPEE are:
  • to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas thereby fostering communication within the growing pluralist community;
  • to advance the techniques and concepts of pluralist economics by providing practical suggestions to incorporate pluralism into the classroom;
  • to offer teachers and educators interested in pluralism an outlet for their research; and
  • to change the emphasis of economic education by making pluralism a central feature.
More information about the publication can be found on the descriptive leaflet
