This is Bad News for GMU

From Brian Leiter:

Vernon Smith, a seminal figure in “experimental economics,” whose work has also been influential in behavioral law and economics scholarship over the past decade, is moving with his research team from George Mason University to Chapman University.  Smith’s joint appointments will include one in the Law School there.

Wow.  This is a coup for Chapman and more importantly (at least to me!), a major loss for GMU.

    He left the U of AZ in a similar fashion and went to GMU. I see a pattern here! 🙂
