John Schwendel was awarded the Richard Perlman Prize for the year’s outstanding paper in Labor Economics. He won for his paper “INEQUALITY IN THE UNITED STATES: 1946-2015”.
The funds collected by Richard’s colleagues, students and past winners of his prize have recognized the best labor economics paper by a UWM student since 1999. We encourage contributions to the Richard Perlman Fund to support and enlarge this recognition of our outstanding student scholars and to commemorate Richard.
