Faculty and Research

The "TOM Seminar" is a weekly (Thursdays) seminar, where faculty, students, and guests from other institutions and departments can present their work-in-progress. Very often, the work has not yet been published, even as a working paper. This workshop is a wonderful opportunity to present fledgling work and benefit from the comments and suggestions of colleagues. Join us Thursdays, from 12:30-1:45 p.m. in Baker Library 102. For questions or to join the mailing list, please contact tomunit@hbs.edu.
