Prospective employers may contact the students and their advisors directly via the e-mail addresses provided below in the table. Many of these students also have a separate home page on which you may find a copy of their job market paper, curriculum vitae, and an abstract for the dissertation, all in either .pdf or .ps format, which require Adobe Acrobat Reader.
