Come and let us get to know you as we open up the semester with our first meeting and guest speaker Dr. Ti monthy Bond\, Professor of Economics at Purdue University. Dr. Bond achiev ed his B.S. Quantitative Economics from Miami University\, M.A. in Politic al Economy and P.h.D in Economics from Boston University. Dr. Bond will be speaking about his research regarding the economics of fertility. Free fo od and drinks will be provided! \n \nAbstract of Dr. Bond's topic:\nFert ility levels across the United States and the rest of the world have plumm eted below replacement levels over the past 25 years. Direct economic fact ors have only limited explanatory power. We propose decreases in prices an d increases of quality of experiential goods\, which are plausibly degrade d by children\, are responsible. We first show theoretically that whether a price or quality shock to a given good is pro-natal or anti-natal can be predicted by differences in consumption patterns between parents and non- parents.  Based on spending data\, this suggests price decreases or quali ty improvements in travel and dining out should be anti-natal. We show tha t populations who had pre-existing larger gaps in spending between parents and non-parents on travel and dining out saw larger decreases in fertilit y between 2007-2019. Further\, fertility declined faster among cities with the most internationally connected airports. \n\nHosted by: Graduate Stu dents Economics Club (GSEC)\, International Business and Economics Associa tion\n\nAdditional Information can be found at: https://crimsonconnection. nmsu.edu/event/12652623 LAST-MODIFIED:20260828T002151Z LOCATION:Business Complex Room 108 URL:https://crimsonconnection.nmsu.edu/event/12652623?utm_source=caldiscov ery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=las-cruces-nm X-SOURCE-NAME:NM State Esports X-SOURCE-URL:https://crimsonconnection.nmsu.edu/organization/nmstateesport s END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Horseman's Association Meeting DTSTART:20260917T230000Z DTEND:20260918T000000Z DTSTAMP:20260910T182407Z UID:https://crimsonconnection.nmsu.edu/event/12734049 CATEGORIES:education DESCRIPTION:Come join the Horsemen’s Association for a fun\, hands-on ev ening at the NMSU Equestrian Center!
