A Day of Finance

Today I had the pleasure of going on a field trip with 4 completely pleasant, open-minded girls, who were willing to go on an adventure, to look at something new without fear or hesitation, but rather with curiosity and a desire to expand their worlds.   We made it through the NY Fed's rigorous screening (!), received packets of shredded money, looked at pork bellies, soybeans and Bloomberg terminals, and took our photographs at the Bull at Bowling Green.    I am excited by the opportunity that they sought and embraced.  Who knew this field trip, reluctantly planned, would one of my best teaching days ever?  Thanks, girls!
