My Favorites of 2012

• Esther Duflo(“Social Experiments to Fight Poverty” (2/2010, [well I saw this clip in 2012], TED, link)

• “Our American Endorsement” (11/3/2012, the Economist, link)
  
• “Why We Love Politics” (11/22/2012, NYT, link)
• “Narrowing the New Class Divide” (3/7/2012, NYT, link)
• “Don’t Eat Fortune’s Cookie” (6/3/2012, Princeton, link)
• “The Opposite of Loneliness” (5/27/2012,  Yale Daily News, link):
  

  We don’t have a word for the opposite of loneliness, but if we did, I’d say that’s how I feel at Yale. How I feel right now. Here. With all of you. In love, impressed, humbled, scared. And we don’t have to lose that.

  We’re in this together, 2012. Let’s make something happen to this world.
