Check out the new Wharton promotional video. It was created when we were in Philadelphia back in September. I think they did a pretty good job promoting the program. Good work to Ben, Rangesh, and everyone else.

Yes, we’re in a recession
December 1st, 2008 by RVD · No Comments
Well, NBER finally made the announcement today. We’re in a recession and it officially started last year (December 2007). I did write about it here. My guess is that they didn’t announce it earlier because it was too close to the election.
