University Distinguished Lecture

Behind the Scenes on September 11: How the Federal Reserve Made Sure that Cash Machines and Credit Cards Kept Working

by Stephen G. Cecchetti January 22, 2003, 4:00 p.m., EST Wexner Center Film/Video Theater 1871 North High Street Columbus, Ohio Professor Department of Economics The Ohio State University

The University Distinguished Lecture Series was inaugurated in 1996 as one of the University's highest honors for a senior faculty member. The lectureship is awarded in recognition of outstanding academic achievement, particularly, but not exclusively, in research, scholarship, or creative activity. The President's and Provost's Advisory Committee reviews nominations and recommends candidates to the President and Provost for final selection.

The Office of Academic Affairs presents and award of $5,000 to the University Distinguished Lecturer to designate for a purpose that promotes the academic goals of the individual's college and/or of the University. Professor Cecchetti has designated that his award should be used to support the Mershon Center's program on political economy.
