The Economist

The Economist weekly magazine is widely acclaimed for its thoughtful and stimulating analyses of world news, politics, and business. It also has sections on science, technology, books, the arts, and extensive reports on particular issues of current interest. Each study group participant is required to lead or co-lead a weekly discussion. This involves selecting 10-12 articles from the current weekly issue and developing the questions needed to get the lively conversations started. Given the uncertainty of the mail, a digital subscription to The Economist is highly encouraged. Information on subscriptions and a reduced introductory (maybe even a student) rate is available at 1-800-456-6086 or www.economistsubscriptions.com. Join us if you are interested in current events and eager to enrich our discussions.
