Matches were exposed to STEM careers and participated in STEM activities to increase their awareness and interest in this thriving field. Highlights included: seeing 3D printing up close with a local startup company; understanding watersheds and using microscopes with the Washington County Conservation District; and learning about energy and recycling with The Friends of Drake Well, Inc. STEM activities are a natural fit for Pittsburgh Public’s Science and Technology Academy, where students already have a passion for science, technology, engineering and math. This year, BBBSPGH specifically recruited mentors in the STEM field, representing careers in engineering, programming, and technical support. This group of matches had the opportunity to learn about entrepreneurship from companies including PathVu and Nowait.

  • An Interview with David Cass
    32 Stephen E. Spear and Randall Wright 2 An Interview with David Cass Interviewed by Stephen E. Spear CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY and Randall Wright UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA February 13, 1998 David Cass is undoubtedly one of the central contributors to modern dynamic economics. His fundamental contributions include work on optimal growth problems, overlapping-generations models, sunspot equilibria, and general equilibrium models with incomplete markets. His research has shaped in profound ways the manner in which we do both micro- and macroeconomics. From laying the foundations of real business-cycle theory via the Cass–Koopmans model, to providing us with general tools and techniques to analyze dynamic economic models, to furthering our under- standing of monetary economics, to making fundamental contributions to the economics of extrinsic uncertainty, Cass’s work has played a major part in the development of much of modern macroeconomic theory. In addition to being a first-class scholar, Cass is also truly his own man and a free spirit of the highest order. In this interview, we tried to gain some insights into the story of David Cass and his approach to economic theory. Also, given the title as well as the intended readership of Macroeconomic Dynamics, we made a real Reprinted from Macroeconomic Dynamics, 2, 1998, 533–558.

Weller March 2013 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Making Sure Money Is Available When We Need It Protecting Household Assets Must Become an Integral Part of U.S. Savings Policies Christian E. Weller March 2013 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 5 Greater wealth volatility has led to rising risk exposure 11 Risk exposure has increased over time and across groups 16 Detailed data show that risk exposure has become excessive 24 Conclusion and policy implications 28 About the author 29 Appendix A: Review of the relevant literature on wealth and risk exposure 31 Appendix B: High wealth went along with high insecurity before the crisis 32 Appendix C: Indicators of individual risk exposure 36 Appendix D: Rising risk exposure over time and changing risk exposure during crises 38 Endnotes Introduction and summary Household wealth—the difference between a household’s assets and its debt—is a crucial aspect of economic security. It allows households to pay for necessities during an economic emergency, and it permits families to invest in their future— pay for their children’s or their own education, start a business, switch jobs, move to advance their careers, and plan for a secure retirement. For a family to benefit from it, household wealth has to actually be there when households need the economic security that comes from having wealth. Over the past few decades, however, household wealth has become increasingly volatile, meaning that wealth has swung up and down much more widely over the past two decades than it did in the preceding decades after World War II.1 Macroeconomic instability due to the housing and stock market bubbles—and bursts—is one of the contributing factors, but so is greater household-wealth risk exposure due to more investments in the housing and stock markets and greater household debt than in the past.

  • 2011 Transforming Lives & Eliminating Health Disparities
    West Virginia University Robert C. Byrd Health Sciences Center Development Report 2011 Transforming Lives & Eliminating Health Disparities Faculty, students, and staff at the Health Sciences Center – including all of our schools and campuses, and all our WVU Healthcare affiliates – have been reviewing our priorities and planning the future of our institution throughout the past year. The strategic planning process initiated by WVU President Jim Clements has involved hundreds of people at the HSC, and has resulted in a renewal of our dedication to our core missions. Transforming Lives and Eliminating Health Disparities We have identified five priorities for the HSC over the next five years: • Contribute to the health of West Virginians through leading edge research programs • Promote a vibrant environment devoted to diversity, learning & scholarship • Raise the health status of West Virginians • Foster a culture of high purpose, accountability & accomplishment • Deliver high quality, effective patient-centered care Each of our schools has set specific measurable goals under these priorities and will publicly report on their progress as we move forward. To see more detail on the HSC Strategic Plan and follow our progress, visit www.hsc.wvu.edu/hsc2020. Our success in the pursuit of these goals has been immeasurably strengthened in the past year by the impressive generosity of our donors. Not only have several individuals, families, corporations and foundations stepped up to create transformational, million-dollar-plus endowments, but an enormous number of alumni, parents, friends and former patients have reached into their pockets to support our students, our research programs and our healthcare efforts. The total raised to support our schools and programs in FY 2011 was $21.2 million.

    Penn Institute for Economic Research Department of Economics University of Pennsylvania 3718 Locust Walk Philadelphia, PA 19104-6297 [email protected] http://www.econ.upenn.edu/pier PIER Working Paper 07-036 “Utility-Based Utility” by David Cass http://ssrn.com/abstract=1077131 Utility-Based Utility∗ David Cass Department of Economics University of Pennsylvania First Version: December 15, 2007 Abstract A major virtue of von Neumann-Morgenstern utilities, for example, in the the- ory of general financial equilibrium (GFE), is that they ensure time consistency: consumption-portfolio plans (for the future) are in fact executed (in the future) — assuming that there is perfect foresight about relevant endogenous variables. This paper proposes an alternative to expected utility, one which also delivers consistency between plan and execution — and more. In particular, the formulation affords an extremely natural setting for introducing extrinsic uncertainty. The key idea is to divorce the concept of filtration (of the state space) from any considerations involv- ing probability, and then concentrate attention on nested utilities of consumption looking forward from any date-event: utility today depends only on consumption today and prospective utility of consumption tomorrow, utility tomorrow depends only on consumption tomorrow and prospective utility of consumption the day after tomorrow, and so on. JEL classification: D61, D81, D91 Key words: Utility theory, Expected utility, Time consistency, Extrinsic uncer- tainty, Cass-Shell Immunity Theorem ∗Interaction with the very able TA’s helping me with (carrying?) the first year equilibrium theory course at Penn during the fall of 2007 — Matt Hoelle and Soojin Kim — spurred me into pursuing this research.
