There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The heavy toll that COVID-19 imposes on our communities extends well beyond our health and healthcare systems. To learn how the virus impacts our economy watch with us a webinar provided by NEED (National Economic Education Delegation). In this Webinar, Scott Baier, the Chair of the Clemson Department of Economics discusses the transmission mechanisms of the virus into the economy, particularly vulnerable industries and workers, and the efficacy of government economic policies designed to ameliorate the economic impact. Click the following links to view the webinar or download the slides. Our very own Associate Professor, Tibor Besedes, serves on the board of NEED.
