Hi #EconSky, I'm on the #EconJobMarket!

My JMP provides the first evidence on how teacher labor market shocks affect long-run student outcomes.

I study one of the largest teacher supply shocks in US history, larger even than Covid or the Great Recession.

👋 I'm Danielle, and I'm on the #econjobmarket this year!

Let's start with a student describing her segregated school:

"The school felt temporary. Built like a warehouse with aluminum siding . . . I had a slipshod education"

The twist? The student is white, and her school is private.

It's not everyday that I wake up to a front page article in the Boston Globe featuring a colleague of mine, complete with photo shoot.

Today is that day! Fantastic coverage of the teacher workforce research that @oliviachi.bsky.social does here at BU Wheelock.
