OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Papers and speakers for this seminar will be: ‘Surnames, Status and Schools: A Long-term View of the Social Ladder in Colombia’ by Juliana Jaramillo-Echeverri (London School of Economics) with Andrés Álvarez (Universidad de los Andes); ‘The Impact of State-Provided Education: Evidence from the 1870 Education Act’ by Benjamin Milner (University of Alberta); ‘Intergenerational Mobility in American History: Accounting for Race and Measurement Error’ by Zach Ward (Baylor University)
