PAULSON, JR. and ERSKINE BOWLES Edited by MELISSA S. KEARNEY and AMY GANZ FEBRUARY 2019 Acknowledgements We are grateful to the members of the Aspen Economic Strategy Group, whose questions, suggestions, and discussion were the motivation for this book. Three working groups of Aspen Economic Strategy Group Members spent considerable time writing the discussion papers that are contained in this volume. These groups were led by Jason Furman and Phillip Swagel, Keith Hennessey and Bruce Reed, and Austan Goolsbee and Glenn Hubbard. We are indebted to these leaders for generously lending their time and intellect to this project. We also wish to acknowledge the members who spent considerable time reviewing proposals and bringing their own expertise to bear on these issues: Sylvia M. Burwell, Mitch Daniels, Melissa S. Kearney, Ruth Porat, Margaret Spellings, Penny Pritzker, Dave Cote, Brian Deese, Danielle Gray, N. Gregory Mankiw, Magne Mogstad, Wally Adeyemo, Martin Feldstein, Maya MacGuineas, and Robert K.

We are also grateful to the scholars who contributed policy memos, advanced our understanding about these issues, and inspired us to think creatively about solutions: Manudeep Bhuller, Gordon B. Dahl, Katrine V. Løken, Joshua Goodman, Joshua Gottlieb, Robert Lerman, Chad Syverson, Michael R. Strain, David Neumark, Ann Huff Stevens and James P. Ziliak.

  • The University of Chicago Woodlawn Avenue Plan Sub-Area O, 2017-2021
    Update to The University of Chicago Woodlawn Avenue Plan Sub-Area O, 2017-2021 Plan for University of Chicago-owned properties in the 5700 block of South Woodlawn Avenue and 5757 South University Avenue Saieh Hall, East Elevation, 2015 Photo credit: Tom Rossiter Update Per The University of Chicago Woodlawn Avenue Plan Sub-Area O, 2012-2016 dated January 31, 2012, the Plan is to be updated at a minimum every five years. With this plan update, the University reaffirms for the 2017-2022 period its commitment to maintaining the Character-Defining Features within Sub-Area O as outlined originally. Since the 2012 adoption of the plan, the University has made significant investments in Sub-Area O. Eight of the 12 buildings in the planning area have been sensitively renovated. The three buildings that were vacant at the time the previous plan was released are now activated with academic-related functions and activities. The Seminary Co-Op Bookstore has been relocated to the first floor of McGiffert House, next to a new neighborhood amenity, the Plein Air Café and its adjacent outdoor terrace. Landscape and exterior enhancements have been made at several locations, most notably the conversion of 58th Street to a pedestrian walkway between Woodlawn and University avenues that also involved vacating the north-south alley and creating a new entrance to the 5757 S. University Avenue building. Amidst these enhancements, however, much remains the same due to the University of Chicago’s demonstrated commitment to maintaining the architectural integrity of the heritage buildings in Sub- Area O, as well as the “serene and walkable” character of the surrounding neighborhood of which it is a part.
