I teach public policy and economics at Dartmouth College. Prior to coming to Dartmouth full-time in the fall of 2012, I taught for eight years at the Harris School of Public Policy at the University of Chicago. My courses generally address “policy in the real world.” How can we use economics and other academic tools to deal with real public challenges–immigration, climate change, mounting federal debt, and so on. I am the author of Introduction to Public Policy, a text that introduces of a set of tools for basic policy analysis.

Charles Wheelan is the man with the anti-Midas touch. By Steve Koppes (News Office) “If he touched gold he would turn it to life,” wrote Princeton University professor Burton Malkiel in the foreword to Wheelan’s book Naked Economics: Undressing the Dismal Science, published in 2002. It appears that Wheelan applies the same touch to his University courses. Though he became a Lecturer in the Irving B. Harris Graduate School of Public Policy Studies only last year, students in his Analyzing and Commun- icating Policy course already have felt his energizing anti-Midas touch. For one class period each Fall and Spring Quarter, the students in this course find themselves seated in the studios of WBEZ-FM at Navy Pier, instead of the long, narrow confines of the Woodlawn Room in the 1155 Building on campus. WBEZ is familiar territory for Wheelan.

He is a long-time contributor both to WBEZ’s 848 public affairs program and to The Motley Fool, a nationally syndicated program on National Public Radio covering finance, economics and business. But students do the talking on these WBEZ field trips, not Wheelan, during an off-the-air version of 848 that culminates their group projects. “They have to come up with some policy recommendation,” Wheelan says. “It could be anything from changing Illinois recycling law to creating a global fund to providing an incentive for the creation of a malaria vaccine.” After the students have formulated their policy recommendation, “then they have to sell it. They’ve got to do a press release. They’ve got to do talking points.
