Jeff Sachs/Amartya Sen event at Columbia
This is a public service announcement for those of you living in the New York City area. Columbia University is hosting an event called "The End of Poverty" featuring a conversation with Amartya Sen, Jeff Sachs, Emma Rothschild (Sen's wife and prof of history at Harvard), and Gareth Stedman Jones of Cambridge University. The event will be held at Roone Arledge Cinema at Columbia University (115th and Broadway) and is open to the public (no tickets or rsvp's necessary). I'd suggest that you get there early because I suspect this will be a well attended event.
