    Thin
    Happy
    We are talking nearly constantly during the day. She stops by my office three or four times with questions.

      What's the point of an RA for econ? Too hard to draw the graph of a line going up and poor people dying without an aunderpaid grad student?

        I thought RAs were the mini landlords/cops of student dorms

          Eh, residential advisors function more like a hands-off camp counselor than a landlord. Anyway, I'm hard pressed to think of a guy who is married and has an office but lives in a first year dorm. Based on that I think it means research assistant here.
