Racial segregation is often blamed for some of the achievement gap between blacks and
whites. We study the effects of school and neighborhood segregation on the relative SAT
scores of black students across different metropolitan areas, using large microdata ...

Abstract Growing concerns over the inadequate achievement of US students have led to
proposals to reward good teachers and penalize (or fire) bad ones. The leading method for
assessing teacher quality is “value added” modeling (YAM), which decomposes students' ...
School choice policies may improve productivity if parents choose well-run schools, but not if
parents primarily choose schools for their peer groups. Theoretically, high income families
cluster near preferred schools in housing market equilibrium; these need only be effective ...
In an influential paper, Hoxby (2000) studies the relationship between the degree of so-
called" Tiebout choice" among local school districts within a metropolitan area and average
test scores. She argues that choice is endogenous to school quality, and instruments with ...

Abstract Schelling (“Dynamic Models of Segregation,” Journal of Mathematical Sociology 1
(1971), 143–186) showed that extreme segregation can arise from social interactions in
white preferences: once the minority share in a neighborhood exceeds a “tipping point,” ...

Abstract Nonrandom assignment of students to teachers can bias value-added estimates of
teachers' causal effects. Rothstein (2008, 2010) shows that typical value-added models
indicate large counterfactual effects of fifth-grade teachers on students' fourth-grade ...
Growing concerns over the achievement of US students have led to proposals to reward
good teachers and penalize (or fire) bad ones. The leading method for assessing teacher
quality is" value added" modeling (VAM), which decomposes students' test scores into ...

In the early 2000s, a highly selective university introduced a “no-loans” policy under which
the loan component of financial aid awards was replaced with grants. We use this natural
experiment to identify the causal effect of student debt on employment outcomes. In the ...

Abstract Despite extensive public infrastructure spending, surprisingly little is known about
its economic return. In this paper, we estimate the value of school facility investments using
housing markets: standard models of local public goods imply that school districts should ...
The Supreme Court has held repeatedly that race-based preferences in public university
admissions are constitutional. But debates over the wisdom of affirmative action continue.
Opponents of these policies argue that preferences are detrimental to minority students-- ...
An important criticism of race-based higher education admission preferences is that they
may hurt minority students who attend more selective schools than they would in the
absence of such preferences. We categorize the non-experimental research designs ...
Abstract: Researchers conducting non-experimental studies of panel data often attempt to
remove the potentially biasing effects of individual heterogeneity through the inclusion of
fixed effects. I evaluate so-called “Value Added Models”(VAMs) that attempt to identify ...

Abstract In Grutter v. Bollinger, Justice O'Connor conjectured that in 25 years affirmative
action in college admissions will be unnecessary. We project the test score distribution of
black and white college applicants 25 years from now, focusing on the role of black–white ...
Abstract Proponents of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), eager to
expand it to Chile and other Latin American nations, have consistently used misleading job
numbers to support their case. For example, the Clinton administration claims that 2.3 ...

Abstract The EITC is designed to encourage work. But EITC-induced increases in labor
supply may drive wages down, shifting the intended transfer toward employers and hurting
non-EITC low-skill workers. I exploit variation across family types and skill levels to identify ...
The rate at which racial gaps in pre-collegiate academic achievement can plausibly be
expected to erode is a matter of great interest and much uncertainty. In her opinion in Grutter
v. Bollinger, Supreme Court Justice O'Connor took a firm stand:" We expect that 25 years ...
Nearly two years after the official end of the" Great Recession," the labor market remains
historically weak. One candidate explanation is supply-side effects driven by dramatic
expansions of Unemployment Insurance (UI) benefit durations, to as many as 99 weeks. ...

Abstract Data from college admissions tests can provide a valuable measure of student
achievement, but the non-representativeness of test-takers is an important concern. We
examine selectivity bias in both state-level and school-level SAT and ACT averages. The ...

Abstract Family background is correlated with collegiate performance, as is the SAT.
Moreover, SAT scores are themselves highly correlated with family background. Validity
research has rarely taken account of these connections, though the extent to which the ...

Abstract A key attraction of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is that it encourages work.
But EITC'induced increases in labor supply may drive wages down, permitting employers of
low'skill labor to capture some of the intended transfer and negatively impacting workers ...

Analysts often examine the black-white test score gap conditional on family income.
Typically only a current income measure is available. We argue that the gap conditional on
permanent income is of greater interest, and we describe a method for identifying this gap ...
