Summary of GFRC
The purpose of the Government Finance Research Center at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs (CUPPA) is to shape and inform public policy and scholarly discourse on government and public finance by identifying, planning and executing research, providing periodic reports and informed analyses, and offering venues at which to convene national and local discussion on fiscal and governmental issues.
Welcome To The GFRC: Two New Advisory Panel Members
The Government Finance Research Center (GFRC) has relied, since its inception, on a cadre of the best and brightest men and women in the various fiscally-related fields it covers. They appear as a group as our “external advisory panel.”
We are proud to announce that we’ve added two exemplar individuals to the panel, who will add even more depth and breadth to the knowledge base upon which the Center relies. They are Shelby Kerns, executive director of the National Association of State Budget Officers and Joel Black, chairman of the Governmental Accounting Standard Board.
