Will Shadish of UC Merced visiting on 2/12/09
During Winter 2008 break, AQM confirmed that Professor Will Shadish will visit with our fellows and faculty on 2/12/09.
Will is lecturing on this topic: When Can Nonrandomized Experiments Approximate the Answers from Randomized Experiments? He has a couple of papers posted on our AQM page at:
http://aqm.gseis.ucla.edu/newsandevents.html
On December 8th, we had our Opening Reception of the AQM program. About 21 showed up to eat and drink and converse. The Power Point is posted.
At the reception, I finally met all the fellows. I learned that many are married with children, have had several years of corporate life before the program and are working very hard toward their degrees. A very focused bunch! I am here to help them in any way possible so that their experience within the program and the school is positive and affirming.
