- Powell led the Fed’s fight against inflation. It’s not over yet — and it could get even harder
James Bullard, who ended a 15-year term as president of the St. Louis Fed in 2023, told CNN that criticism the Fed pegged inflation as transitory in 2021 and thus was slow to act was “fair.” But Bullard, who voted on interest-rate decisions as part of the Fed’s policymaking committee, added that, with Powell at the helm, that same Fed also threaded the needle for a soft landing, when inflation is tamed without a recession. - Restructuring announcement launches Daniels School of Business into transformative future

Pengyi Shi is an associate professor of Supply Chain and Operations Management at Purdue University. In this video, Shi explains the ongoing impacts and reasons behind the nursing shortage from a supply and demand standpoint, and why she remains optimistic about potential solutions. Shi says the current nursing shortage is driven by retiring baby boomers who need medical attention and nursing enrollment numbers that are unable to meet demand. As a result, she says the shortage will remain a problem for the foreseeable future. This issue puts tremendous stress on nurses working to compensate for the increasing patient to nurse ratio. Side effects may include more mistakes and a higher turnover rate. This leads to a decrease in overall quality of care and the nurses’ well-being. However, Shi believes people should remain optimistic about potential solutions to this looming crisis. Many states have made efforts to increase funding for enrollment in order to incentivize students to pursue a career in nursing. AI could also be utilized to help put nurses where they are most needed. This could help nurses manage their workloads in an increasingly stressful environment. - New Business Fellows Program Further Integrates the Real World into Curriculum

James “Jim” Bullard, former president and chief executive officer of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, is the Dean of the Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. School of Business at Purdue University. In this video, he reviews the current state of the U.S. economy. Inflation has come down significantly from 4 percent last year to around 3 percent today. While consumers are still feeling the impact of higher prices, these prices are not rising as fast as they used to. Bullard says market uncertainty thanks to conflicts overseas and a contentious election year has made the economic future harder to predict. While there is always a risk of recession, Bullard does not believe that risk is any higher now than normal. Unemployment rate has been hovering abnormally low between 3 and 4 percent, indicating that the labor market is normalizing rather than moving toward a recession. - Ethical Integration of AI in the Classroom

Allison Gabriel is the Thomas J. Howatt Chair in Management in the Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. School of Business at Purdue University. In this video, she explains how new mothers returning to the workplace should be treated and what employers can do to support them. One of the biggest fears women have when coming back from maternity leave is being treated like they are a problem for being away. Gabriel says it is important for women to feel support from their work before, during and after leave. On average, Gabriel says 15% of new mothers are diagnosed with postpartum depression. This typically will take effect within the first couple of weeks but can occur at any point within the first year after birth. Because of this, Gabriel says it is crucial to support new moms during the entirety of their first year back at work and beyond. Employers that support mothers will have better employee retention, positive word of mouth and a healthier workforce. - Presidential Lecture Series: David Malpass and Jim Bullard
