Ever wonder about how the Great Recession affects current prices and its implications for our future economy?  Join us for a presentation by Martha Paas, the Wadsworth A. Williams Professor of Economics, who will explain what historic inflations can tell us about the causes and consequences of inflation.  Looking at the inflation of the 1970s and after, she will describe interesting structural changes in the economy which have implications for a future inflation.  She will also discuss the effect of the current deficit on prices and what our options are.

Cost:  $10 includes lunch.  To make your reservations contact the Alumni Relations Office at 507-222-5842 by Friday, February 25th.  All reservations need to be paid in advance by credit card.
