Auburn University's Center for International Finance and Global Competitiveness has two seminars coming up.  Auburn alumnus, and current economics professor at College of Charleston, Pete Calcagno will be here this Friday to give his paper "Olympic Winners and Losers: The Role of Economic Freedom." Pete was supported by the Mises Institute during his graduate school days.

On Thursday of next week, the Atlanta Fed's Gerald Dwyer will be here to give his paper on "The Financial Crisis of 2008."  Despite working for the evil Fed, Jerry is a good free-market economist.

Details about times and places can be found below.

I don't know of many good free market economists who work for the FED.  It is sort of like a nun in a whorehouse.
