RC (not the cola)

This week all my reading for Scopes and Methods and half my readings for Latin American politics are about Rational choice theory (RC). This morning I wrote four pages summarizing and asking questions about an article on RC's application to Latin American politics co-authored by the professor of the class. That was not the most elegant sentence in the history of the English language. Anyhow, it's a little stressful to be writing about someone's work for her, but the upside is knowing that any errors will be quickly corrected...

For an interesting read about how bad people are at making decisions read this New Yorker piece. Thanks to my friend Jay for sending it a year or two ago.

Doing well. I'm actually on top of reading. Which means I should get on top of a bunch of other stuff like research for my end-of-term paper...
