SUBJECT:

Celebration of Life for Sir Clive W.J. Granger

Please join the Department of Economics and me on Friday, July 31, 2009 from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. at the Ida and Cecil Green Faculty Club for a Celebration of Life for Sir Clive Granger who passed away on May 27, 2009 at the age of 74. The Granger family will be in attendance.

Granger, a 2003 Nobel Prize winner, joined the UCSD faculty in 1974 and was one of the globe's most notable econometricians. After retiring, he served as professor emeritus and research professor at UC San Diego, remaining active in the research life of the Department of Economics. The campus community mourns the loss of this great man and leading scholar widely known for his brilliance, collegiality and close working relationships with students.

The Celebration of Life will include a program and reception. Please RSVP to econevents@ucsd.edu. If you have questions, you can contact the Economics Department at (858) 534-1056.
