Save the Date: Ask an Austrian Economist Anything

On Monday, January 28, at 9:00pm Eastern Time, I’ll be hosting “Ask an Austrian Economist Anything,” a Q&A session open to the public. I’ll be joined by Prof. Jeff Herbener, department chairman of economics at Grove City College. I have been pestering Dr. Herbener with questions for 20 years. I have yet to stump him.

These live sessions are normally available only to members of my LibertyClassroom.com (the live sessions are a supplement to the site’s main purpose, which is to provide downloadable, on-demand courses in a variety of areas), but I’m opening this one up to the general public. I hope you can join us. We’ll be meeting at this link.

And here’s Professor Herbener on how he became an Austrian, after going through a mainstream Ph.D. program and teaching as a mainstream economist.

Unlearn the Propaganda!
