Carl Snyder Memorial Lecture

The Carl Snyder Memorial Lecture is named for noted economic authority and author Carl Snyder, who died in 1946. Established in 1960 with a bequest from the estate of Snyder’s wife, Madeleine Raisch, the memorial is used to bring to the campus an outstanding lecturer in the field of economics. To honor Carl Snyder, a group of alumni, faculty and friends of the Department of Economics collaborated to identify this year’s distinguished speaker, Professor Emi Nakamura.
