Format:
The conference will begin at 9am Friday, and will continue through noon on Sunday. We anticipate having a total of 15 presentations, 6 on Friday, 6 on Saturday and 3 more on Sunday morning. Each session will be an hour long, with 30-40 minutes going to the presentation, 10 minutes to the discussant, and the remaining time to be used for open discussion.
- Note: There will be a $100 registration fee for both presenters and other conference attendees.
- Participants from Purdue University and graduate students are exempt from this fee.
Submissions:
- Our submission volume has been very high and we try to read each submission. Accordingly, please submit only a single completed or nearly completed paper. Multiple submissions will be rejected. Abstract only submissions are not accepted.
- In selecting papers, we have a preference for "new" work, that is, papers that have not yet had a chance for wide exposure and comment from audiences and referees. Accordingly, we discourage submission of papers that have been:
- revised-and-resubmitted to a journal. Accepted papers are not eligible.
- presented widely at other conferences, e.g., at the NBER, ERWIT, or other CEPR conference.
- We will be sponsoring the graduate student competiton once again this year.
- Graduate students, please make sure that you indicate your eligibility for this competition when making your submission.
- Papers should be submitted electronically, in PDF format, through the following link:
