Berman was again present for the second discussion, together with Professors Peter Marsden (sociology) and David Cutler (economics), chair and member of the FAS Benefits Committee, respectively. For the final topic, Deans Nancy Maull (executive dean) and Cheryl Hoffman-Bray (associate dean for finance) were present.
