I am pleased to announce that I have accepted an invitation from the Kentucky Economics Association to participate in a discussion of economic issues impacting education in Kentucky. I suspect I'll be the slightly disoriented practitioner among a flock of data hawks. But I look forward to the discussion. Shout out to Dr. Gail Hoyt for organizing the panel, and for the invitation.
