Thinking about Grad School? Me neither!

But in case you decide 3 more years of sadness is in your future, an anonymous senior level cabinet official professor from the department linked me to this page full of advice on applying to grad school.

My favorite tidbit is: "Get to know some professors well. Professors will be very excited that you want to get a Ph.D. in economics. Don't be afraid to approach them. Listen to their advice."

In other words, come to the econ club meetings more often! Get to know the professors better, gamble on whether they'll pay for the food, and banter nonsensically about things tangentially related to economics!
