The Economics Student Union (ESU) is an organization intended for all economics majors and potential majors. The Union is interested in getting as many students as possible involved and is always looking for new ideas and leadership. It was founded in the fall of 2001 by students who wished to provide a structure for economics students to:
* interact with faculty
* share advice regarding classes and careers
* bring speakers to the campus
* organize discussions of policy issues, and
* facilitate ways of presenting student views of the
economics major to the Economics Department.

Senior students are presenting their senior thesis and also the prize for the trading game will be announced. It will be a great event for you to know more about graduation with distinction program, talking to professors and fellow classmates, as well as meeting people with the same interests in trading as you do at the same time. Did I mention there will be free food and drinks as well?
Below you can see a few posters from past ESU events. In the upper right of this page, you'll find a video of Professor Duncan Thomas at the "Talk with Economics Professors" event at which he spoke about the field of development economics.
