IN PRINT: Return to a “Better Normal” stressed at 2010 WWS Policy Colloquium

While you were slumbering at 9 AM this past Saturday, a host of big names descended upon Robertson Hall.

New Jersey U.S. Representatives Holt and Lance, your favorite ECO professors Alan Blinder and Uwe Reinhardt, former Dubya Chief of Staff Josh Bolten, and numerous WWS professors all came together to discuss the challenges facing American policy makers after the Great Recession.

This looks boring, but Reinhardts lecture was actually hysterical

Christina Romer, the Chair of Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers delivered the keynote address, and former Goldman Sachs CEO and Jersey Governor (and future visiting professor) Jon Corzine capped off the day.

They all emphasized a “return to normal” after the Great Recession, and the opportunities the moment’s created for American policymakers to make the normal we return to even better than it was before.

You can read the full story at the Wilson School website.
