The UF University Economics Society meets weekly on Tuesdays
at 5:10 pm in Matherly 120. Each week we discuss economic,
political, and philosophical issues such as the minimum wage,
the
war in Iraq, and the morality of the market, and education vouchers.
Meetings usually last 1-2 hours. We also bring in guest speakers
like Dr. Denslow and Dr. Rush, as well as offer forums for discussion
such as posting boards and the new UES blog, Awkward Utopia.
Please
explore our website for more information about our club, then come
out and join us! For more information, contact UES President
Amanda Brameister. |
