The 2022-23 academic year marks my 25th year as a professor. My first appointment as an assistant professor of economics was at the University of North Texas in the fall of 1998. I love teaching students how to use the tools of economics to think about important problems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":100,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-35","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/100"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":510,"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35\/revisions\/510"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/faculty.wcu.edu\/ejlopez\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
