Arlitt Lecture

Today's lecture looks to be pretty cool. Dr. Ester Dunflo from MIT is here today to present work in microfinance (a lecture called "The Miracle of Microfinance? Evidence from a Randomized Evaluation"). I haven't had a chance to read her paper, but the title suggests data may be contradicting the much-heralded claimed success in development. As I don't know enough yet about the topic, I find it prudent to stay out of the argument :-).

I will post later concerning the lecture.
