Caplan Classes in the Canaries
Registration Info
You can sign up for my classes in the Canary Islands here. They’re hybrid classes, so you can still enroll in the unlikely event that you don't live in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria. Here is the official notification from the Universidad de las Hespérides.
Greetings,
We are excited to announce a unique opportunity. During the months of June and July, Bryan Caplan will be our visiting professor at the Universidad de las Hespérides.
Bryan Caplan is a Professor of Economics at George Mason University, a researcher at the Mercatus Center, and an adjunct scholar at the Cato Institute. His areas of expertise include behavioral economics and Public Choice theory. He is the author of several The New York Times bestselling books and writes on his blog, Bet on It, about many current issues. Recently, he published the article “The Canaries in the Coalmine”", addressing the public debate about tourism in the Canary Islands.
During his stay, Professor Caplan will conduct three seminars that promise to be an invaluable learning opportunity:

The price is far too outlandish, unfortunately. 300 euros is 320 USD!

Is it that unlikely? I would expect a high probability that his readers don't live in Las Palmas Gran Canaria.
