During his visit, Mankiw will also speak to the University of Cincinnati Foundation Board of Trustees on the "Challenges Facing Monetary & Fiscal Policy."
Mankiw served as the Chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisors from 2003 to 2005 and currently works as a professor of economics at Harvard University. A research associate for the National Bureau of Economic Research and an Advisor for the Congressional Budget Office, Mankiw writes frequently for the New York Times and Wall Street Journal and is a regular participant in academic and policy debates.
