Brandeis Honors Economic Illiteracy : Robert Reich awarded first Heller School Dean's Medal


Left-Wing Brandeis University gives lawyer Robert Reich an award:
Robert Reich, Secretary of Labor under President Bill Clinton, was presented with the first Dean's Medal from the Heller School for Social Policy and Management in a ceremony Sept. 13, held as part of the school's 55th anniversary celebration.

"This medal is given in recognition of an individual who has contributed both to the scholarship and practice of social policy, and the individual who receives this award should epitomize our motto: 'Knowledge advancing social justice,'" said Heller School Dean and Maurice B. Hexter Professor of Social and Economic Policy Lisa M. Lynch. "I'm thrilled he decided to accept this."

Reich has had a distinguished career as an economist and scholar.
Recently, long time economist Paul Roderick Gregory explained to Forbes readers that Robert Reich is economically ignorant. The mainstream media calls Robert Reich an economist but he doesn't have a Ph.D in economics or much understanding of Econ. 101.
