The 8th annual Griswold Center for Economic Policy Studies Junior Independent Work (JIW) Research Forum was held on September 23, 2025.  Five students in the Economics Department were chosen to present their JIW work at this forum in the fall of their senior year to the rising juniors in the Department of Economics. The forum provides rising juniors the opportunity to see the variety of research they might consider and offers the selected students the opportunity to showcase their outstanding research.  Presenters included: Ivy Chen, Lora Kwon, William Neumann, Michael Ozcelik, Chloe Zhu.
