With rent control in the news, it’s a good moment to recall the research of @rebeccadiamond.bsky.social and co-authors.
They show that strict rent control in San Francisco reduced the availability of rental housing, eventually *raising* rental costs.

Do profs respond to student evaluations?
On average? Nope.
Those who have a more positive view of their own teaching do.
But all of these responses are driven by the female teachers.
