The Department has three perpetual plaques to recognize outstanding students and alumni. 教师 members nominate and select the award recipients, we honor the recipients at our Economics Award Ceremony in the springtime (currently on hold).

James Willis was the Chair of the Department of Economics for over 25 years. His stewardship led the department through turbulent times in the 1970s and laid the groundwork for the current strong program. The award goes to the Outstanding Graduate and Undergraduate 学生.

The inscription on this perpetual plaque is a quote from F. Hayek: “Economics reveals ‘that order generated without design can far outstrip plans men consciously contrive.’” The plaque recognizes the personal sacrifice and “order” that Professor Gonzalez brought to the Department in his three years of service as Department Chair. The award goes to the alum who has contributed most to promote the understanding of economics.
