Crisis: Policies to Strengthen a Troubled Economy
Commencement Forum
May 23, 2009, 11:00 a.m.
List Art Center Auditorium, 64 College Street, Providence
In recent months, the U.S. economy has been buffeted by the housing slump, a credit crisis, rising unemployment, gyrating energy prices, and a dramatic rise in the federal deficit. The Obama Administration and economic leaders have been implementing new policies to address the crisis and stabilize consumer confidence. Where is it all heading? Are we entering an era of more regulation and government intervention? What policy options remain in the toolbox? Please join Annette L. Nazareth’78, Partner, Davis, Polk & Wardwell and a former Commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission; Randall S. Kroszner’84, Norman R. Bobins Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and a former Governor of the Federal Reserve Board; and, Jill Schlesinger’87, Editor-at-Large of CBS MoneyWatch.com to discuss the current state of the U.S. economy and the prospects for recovery.
