NFG Conference 2000
NFG members gave high marks to NFG's annual conference, The New Economy:
A Rising Tide for All? Many members used the pre-conference readings about
the New Economy and participated in lively discussions over the three-day
gathering. Keynote remarks by Robert Kuttner, William Julius Wilson and
Ernesto Cortés, Jr. highlighted a mix of workshops, mini-plenaries
and neighborhood tours.
