		<description><![CDATA[If you're a regular reader in the academic blogosphere, you may have noticed that there are a fair number of blogs out there, either written by economists (and which present economic research) or that simply present the results of economic research that the general public might find accessible and interesting.Henry Farrell has done those of us who study politics a favor by trying to get us to do some of the same.

		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;ve often complained to my colleagues that we pay far too little attention to negative results.  Negative results from our data don&#8217;t tell us as much as positive results, but that hardly means that we learn nothing from them.  At the very least, we can learn what directions have not worked out in [...]]]></description>

An old post from Crooked Timber on successfully gaining a spot on panels at academic conferences.  Possibly useful as we begin to head into proposal season again.

This is my first time at Princeton, so I thought I&#8217;d walk around the campus a bit today.


It&#8217;s absolutely lovely.  This is very much a college town, and the campus has a coherent, idyllic feel to it in a way that Harvard does not.  Lots of trees, big fields and open spaces, and [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m here in Berkeley, for a conference related to my dissertation research.  It was four younger scholars, moderated by a senior faculty member in the sociology department at Berkeley.


What was great about was that it got me a bit out of the bubble of my friends and committee at Harvard.  They&#8217;ve been enormously [...]]]></description>

Alicia Shepard writes about being a teacher in an era of grade inflation.

John Watson, who teaches journalism ethics and communications law at
American, has noticed another phenomenon: Many students, he says,
believe that simply working hard &#8212; though not necessarily doing
excellent work &#8212; entitles them to an A. &#8220;I can&#8217;t tell you how many
times I&#8217;ve heard a [...]]]></description>

One of the problems with the academic world is that you never hear from
fellowships and job applications who received the position(s).&#160;
Prurient curiosity plays a role, but it&#8217;s also useful to know, so that
you can have some idea of what the selection committee was looking for
(They may claim that they weren&#8217;t looking for anything in particular,
but [...]]]></description>

I am in the beginning/middle stages of a paper on Max Weber.&#160; It&#8217;s
pretty workmanlike, and I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s really good for much,
frankly, but I need to do this thing to get rid of an incomplete from
last semester in the social theory class I took.
I enjoy thinking about the things that Weber thought, but my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Apparently, Harvard undergrads are unhappy about several features of the educational experience.
One thing I hate to tell them, but Harvard is a research
university.&#160; Research universities are not really oriented toward
the undergraduate experience.&#160; They exist to create, support, and
disseminate new knowledge, and all other goals are pretty secondary to
that.&#160; I&#8217;m not sayng it should be this [...]]]></description>
