Labor Market Tightness across the United States since the Great Recession
Treanor, Caitlin; Tasci, Murat (2018-01-16)

We show that the intensity of the adverse effects of the recession and the strength of the recovery varied geographically at all points in the process. We also demonstrate that wage growth is delayed until the ratio of unemployed workers to job vacancies returns to prerecession levels.

Hinrichs, Peter (2017-03)
This Economic Commentary studies trends in inflated-adjusted revenues per student at US colleges and universities in broad revenue categories between 1987 and 2013.
