There is an essential value in the Jesuit education tradition that formed Bellarmine’s name- sake, Robert Bellarmine: cura personalis. It translates as “care for the whole person,” and it describes the ideal relationship between faculty, staff and students, and among all those who work together in the university community. These are the relationships that I hope you will discover, and help to nurture, in your time at Bellarmine. In caring for the whole person, we seek to nourish your body and spirit as well as your mind by providing additional opportunities and resources outside the classroom, many of which are outlined in this handbook. You may broaden your horizons by studying abroad and by participating in service projects; challenge yourself physically with more than 20 NCAA Division I varsity sports and dozens of intramural sports; and renew your spirit in Our Lady of the Woods Chapel or in one of our many faith-based organizations. I encourage you to become fully engaged and make your mark on Bellarmine. Of course, we are also committed to providing a challenging academic experience. You will find that our faculty members are personally invested in your success. The Student Success Center provides a variety of services and resources to help you take ownership of your learning, while the Career Development Center can set you on a path toward professional achievement. Be sure to find a mentor and commit yourself to being a prepared and engaged student. Live each day with integrity and reach outside your comfort zone to learn more about the city, the world, and your own passions. These experiences will begin to shape your career, your values, and the leader you become. Your future is bright, and I look forward to watching you flourish. We are excited you are here! Sincerely, Susan M. Donovan, Ph.D. President 2 Dear Bellarmine Student, The mission of Bellarmine University is to be an inclusive Catholic university that educates students—mind, body, and spirit—for meaningful lives, rewarding careers, ethical leadership, and service to improve the human condition. Bellarmine University finds its Catholic identity in the inclusive spirit of Thomas Merton. We believe in the search for the true self, the interconnectedness of life, and the solidarity of the human spirit, which transcends ethnic, religious, and social divisions. We educate the whole person to realize their highest potential as part of an interconnected world. Our institutional values are: • Academic Excellence - Promoting academic inquiry rooted in the liberal arts tradition—critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity, and compas- sion—with an expectation of excellence • Intrinsic Dignity - Respecting the intrinsic value and dignity of every individual • Social Responsibility - Cultivating grounded citizens who contribute to and ad- vocate for the public good, environmental sustainability, global understanding, and informed civic engagement • Integrity - Fostering strong ethical principles, honesty, fairness, transparency, and trustworthiness • Hospitality - Creating an inclusive community that welcomes all and models a spirit of goodwill • Stewardship - Exercising thoughtful stewardship of our university resources As we begin the academic year, these values and beliefs are more important than ever, and our mission remains the same. We want you to succeed and are here to help you reach your highest potential. Utilize the services outlined in this publication. Get to know your exceptional profes- sors, advisors, and staff members as you navigate your academic journey. Be an active member of the community. Get involved. We also ask you to take very seriously what it means to be a Bellarmine Knight. Ask for help. If you see another Knight who may be facing a challenge, reach out and support them in that challenge. Encourage your peers to do the same. In sum, embrace and fall in love with your own unique Bellarmine experience. Go Knights!

  • How Goldsmiths Created Money Page 1 of 2
    Money: Banking, Spending, Saving, and Investing The Creation of Money How Goldsmiths Created Money Page 1 of 2 If you want to understand money, you have got to start with its history, and that means gold. Have you ever wondered why gold is so valuable? I mean, it is a really weak metal that does not have a lot of really practical uses. Maybe it is because it reminded people of the sun, which was worshipped in ancient times, that everyone decided they wanted it. Once everyone wants it, it is capable as serving as a medium of exchange. That is, gold can be used as money, and it is an ideal commodity to serve as a medium of exchange because it’s portable, it’s durable, it’s divisible, and it’s standardizable. Everybody recognizes what they want, it can be broken into little pieces, carried around, it doesn’t rot, and it is a great thing to serve as money. So, before long, gold is circulating in the form of coins. When gold circulates as coins, it is called commodity money, that is, money that has intrinsic value made out of something people want. Now, once gold coins begin to circulate as the medium of exchange, we have got another problem. That problem is security. Imagine that you are in the ancient world, lugging around bags and bags of gold. You are going to be pretty vulnerable to bandits. So what you want to do is make sure that there is a safe place to store your gold because you can store all of your wealth in the form of this valuable commodity, but you do not want it all lying around somewhere that it is easy for somebody else to pick off.

  • New Monetarist Economics: Methods∗
    Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis Research Department Staff Report 442 April 2010 New Monetarist Economics: Methods∗ Stephen Williamson Washington University in St. Louis and Federal Reserve Banks of Richmond and St. Louis Randall Wright University of Wisconsin — Madison and Federal Reserve Banks of Minneapolis and Philadelphia ABSTRACT This essay articulates the principles and practices of New Monetarism, our label for a recent body of work on money, banking, payments, and asset markets. We first discuss methodological issues distinguishing our approach from others: New Monetarism has something in common with Old Monetarism, but there are also important differences; it has little in common with Keynesianism. We describe the principles of these schools and contrast them with our approach. To show how it works, in practice, we build a benchmark New Monetarist model, and use it to study several issues, including the cost of inflation, liquidity and asset trading. We also develop a new model of banking. ∗We thank many friends and colleagues for useful discussions and comments, including Neil Wallace, Fernando Alvarez, Robert Lucas, Guillaume Rocheteau, and Lucy Liu. We thank the NSF for financial support. Wright also thanks for support the Ray Zemon Chair in Liquid Assets at the Wisconsin Business School. The views expressed herein are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the Federal Reserve Banks of Richmond, St. Louis, Philadelphia, and Minneapolis, or the Federal Reserve System. 1Introduction The purpose of this essay is to articulate the principles and practices of a school of thought we call New Monetarist Economics. It is a companion piece to Williamson and Wright (2010), which provides more of a survey of the models used in this literature, and focuses on technical issues to the neglect of methodology or history of thought.

    Estimating the Volume of Counterfeit U.S. Currency in Circulation Worldwide: Data and Extrapolation Ruth Judson and Richard Porter Abstract The incidence of currency counterfeiting and the possible total stock of counterfeits in circulation are popular topics of speculation and discussion in the press and are of substantial practical interest to the U.S. Treasury and the U.S. Secret Service. This paper assembles data from Federal Reserve and U.S. Secret Service sources and presents a range of estimates for the number of counterfeits in circulation. In addition, the paper presents figures on counterfeit passing activity by denomination, location, and method of production. The paper has two main conclusions: first, the stock of counterfeits in the world as a whole is likely on the order of 1 or fewer per 10,000 genuine notes in both piece and value terms; second, losses to the U.S. public from the most commonly used note, the $20, are relatively small, and are miniscule when counterfeit notes of reasonable quality are considered. Introduction In a series of earlier papers and reports, we estimated that the majority of U.S. currency is in circulation outside the United States and that that share abroad has been generally increasing over the past few decades.1 Numerous news reports in the mid-1990s suggested that vast quantities of 1 Judson and Porter (2001), Porter (1993), Porter and Judson (1996), U.S. Treasury (2000, 2003, 2006), Porter and Weinbach (1999), Judson and Porter (2004).
