Oh That Wonderful Stuff": Selected Poetry By College And Middle School Students, Shawn Apostel
Oh That Wonderful Stuff": Selected Poetry By College And Middle School Students, Shawn Apostel
Shawn Apostel
When students use poetry to imagine and explore academic subjects, they examine the topic in new, creative ways, resulting in interesting and lively writings that stimulate thought and class discussions. The following poems are examples of student poetry written in a variety of classes throughout the curriculum. I am pleased to showcase student writing in this section, and I hope reading these poems will suggest possibilities and adaptations for teachers and students elsewhere.

Shock Effects On Stocks, Bonds, And Exchange Rates, Ray C. Fair
Ray C Fair
Tick data and newswire searches are used to find events that led to large and rapid changes in a stock future, a bond future, and three exchange rate futures. Knowledge of these events may be useful in future work. They have the advantages that they are truly surprises and that the sign of their effect on each financial market is known. The events are used in this study to analyze the effects of three types of events (monetary, price, and real) on the five variables.

The Real Effects Of Money Growth In Dynamic General Equilibrium, Liam Graham, Dennis Snower
The Real Effects Of Money Growth In Dynamic General Equilibrium, Liam Graham, Dennis Snower
Dennis Snower
Dynamic New Keynesian models generally ignore steady state money growth. Within a standard New Keynesian framework, we show that the interaction between staggered nominal contracts and money growth leads to a long-run trade-off between output and money growth that is significant, and remains so when the contract length is endogenised. We show that the existence of the tradeoff depends crucially on a phenomenon we call employment cycling: firms’ substitution among different labor types over the course of the contract period. We discuss the plausibility of this phenomenon and show that when it is absent, money becomes super-neutral.

Robert E. Kennedy Library
Institutional repositories are being constructed today to address the needs of scholarly communication in a digital environment. The success of such institutional infrastructures as knowledge collections depends in part on offering low barriers for participation and on supporting heterogeneous knowledge inputs and outputs. The San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) in partnership with CERN (European Center for Nuclear Research), the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), and the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) Science & Engineering Library, has modified CERN’s CDSware software to initiate the process of creating a local low barrier repository.
