Part of the Leaders, Executives, Entrepreneurs, and Directors (LEED) Program.
At the Federal Reserve, we are proud of the fact that while the first two
attempts at central banks in the U.S. lasted only 20 years each, the Fed is in
its 105th year. But Central State is even older. Founded in 1887, the
university recently celebrated its 131st birthday. Central State’s designation
as a historically black college and its focus on providing a high-quality
academic experience to all students are things to be proud of. They make this
university a very good place for me to speak about the benefits of an
education in economics and the importance of diversity in the field of
economics. |
