A summary of what @loismiller.bsky.social, @camilantmorales.bsky.social, @juliaturner.bsky.social, Kalena Cortes, and I are learning about community college bachelor’s degrees so far 👇

Riley rocks! The NESCAC rocks! Riley in the NESCAC double rocks!! Congrats to Bowdoin 🐻‍❄️

Lots of great options for making donations via the site below. MN must not stand alone against this fascist administration. God bless Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and all those who are putting their lives, limbs, and eyes on the line to protect their neighbors 💔

Growing phenomenon that you might not be aware of: a lot of community colleges offer bachelor’s degrees! This descriptive piece is the start of a research agenda with my wonderful coauthors @riacton.bsky.social @julia-turner.bsky.social @camilantmorales.bsky.social and Kalena Cortes

Happy to have this descriptive piece with @camilantmorales.bsky.social, Kalena Cortes, @julia-turner.bsky.social, & @loismiller.bsky.social out! Look for more causal work on this topic from our team in the near future 👀

👋 I'm Danielle, and I'm on the #econjobmarket this year! Let's start with a student describing her segregated school: "The school felt temporary. Built like a warehouse with aluminum siding . . . I had a slipshod education" The twist? The student is white, and her school is private. A JMP 🧵 -->

🧵 New working paper! In joint work w/ @jscottclayton.bsky.social, Veronica Minaya, & Joshua Thomas, we use admin data from a large public univ system to examine earnings gaps for high- vs low-SES college grads 5 years out & the role of first jobs in explaining the gaps. 1/ www.nber.org/papers/w34366

Speaking officially as the host of Jeopardy!, Cal Raleigh is the correct MVP vote.

🚨 New working paper alert! 🚨 #econsky Emily Cook, Paola Ugalde, and I are thrilled to share "Political Views and College Choices in a Polarized America" — now out with both @iza.org and @annenberginstitute.bsky.social EdWorkingPapers www.iza.org/publications... edworkingpapers.com/ai25-1280

This action by Lisa Cook is courageous, principled, and deserves broad support.

The first “removal” (if this stands) of a Federal Reserve Board Governor in the institution’s 112 year history. Totally unprecedented. No due process. A totally authoritarian move.

I can't stress how damaging this is. Destroys trust in core government statistics.

@mikegeruso.bsky.social and Dean Spears' book After the Spike is out! One of the most thoughtful and thought-provoking books on population out there.

New at @pseocoalition.bsky.social, @julia-turner.bsky.social & I have a new report on grad school debt & earnings over the medium term. For some key professional fields (🩺⚖️🦷💊🐾), we show the varied patterns both within & across areas of study, looking at the first decade of earnings after graduation

Wanted to highlight a new report we have just released at the Office of the Chief Economist at ED: "An Overview of Graduate Borrowing and Outcomes." Below are a few graphs that might entice you to read more. First: distributions of annual borrowing for top 25 credentials in terms of annual volume

The 2025 Economic Report of the President is now available. There's a chapter on K12 education! www.whitehouse.gov/cea/written-...
