James Santucci
James Santucci served as head of the Publication Working Group and as submissions liaison. The latter responsibility involved making an Excel spreadsheet, compulsively checking his email for a month and a half, and generally panicking about vlookup functions. The former involved trying to coordinate meeting times, giving up on that, and hoping that a few periodic emails might convince everyone else to learn publication software well enough that he might not have to. He’s hoping to go to a mathematical economics master’s program as a way to fill the time between undergraduate and graduate education, as if the latter is a sure thing. Someday he hopes to do something good for someone else just to see what it feels like.
Alex Major
Alex Major is an economics and math (statistics) double major with research interests in labor economics, econometrics, and the theory of the firm. He served as a Governor of the Undergraduate Economics Club in ’12-’13 and will again next year. He worked as a research assistant to Professor Marta MurrayClose in the fall of 2012, and he will spend the summer doing an internship with Collective Copies in Amherst, in completion of the Certificate in Applied Economic Research on Cooperative Enterprises. In his spare time he regales children with horror stories of data replications gone wrong, and mumbles about ”institutional memory.” He actually paid money for a Stata license, because he is a strong reciprocator. Everywhere he looks he sees rents.

Kurt Coleman
