Hail CESR!


(click image for larger view)

Last night, we had our second annual CESR (Center for the Economic Study of Religion) party. Being the founder and head of the center, all the grad students thought Professor Larry Iannaccone deserved to be immortalized with a portrait.

Dr. Iannaccone was speechless when presented with this very special lifetime achievement award!

A very sincere thanks to Professor Iannaccone from all of us for his support, encouragement, and generosity in our graduate career.

Also special thanks to Krystal and Stephen for hosting the party.

To find out more about the economic study of religion, you can listen to Professor Innaccone's lecture on "The Myth of the Religious Right" and his podcast about the Economics of Religion with Russ Roberts. You can also read many of his papers here.
