Field Trip to Rogue

Jack Joyce, owner of Rogue, has graciously invited the Econ Club to go to the brewery in Newport and chat about the beer business. We are now scheduled to visit on Friday, December 7th at 1:30pm. The economics department will cover the cost of a 12 passenger van and I will drive. We will plan on leaving at 12:30pm.

What is going on in the beer business you ask? Lots!

Professor McMullen

Professor McMullen will present sometime in December or next term. She is part of the Oregon Governor's Council of Economics Advisors and they will be meeting mid-November. They release an economic forecast for the state and nothing can be disclosed until after the meeting. She will come in and talk about the topics of this meeting. Currently she is teaching a class during our normal meeting hours, so it might be better to schedule her out for next term.
