Friday Chats
We are pleased to introduce our two new Friday lunchtime series, open to all Barnard students. Friday Chats will alternate between the two series each week: Barnard seniors interviewing economics professors, and discussions of monetary policy. These are casual events; attend as many as you'd like and you do not need to sign up. Here's the upcoming schedule.
