Our first event at the Keller Center is in the books! Last week, the Institute of Politics hosted renowned statistician Nate Silver (AB'00) for a conversation with Professor Austan Goolsbee, the Robert P. Gwinn Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Silver is known for his prominent political predications and being the founder of FiveThirtyEight, a polling aggregation website for politics, sports, entertainment, and more. 

Silver spoke on his pathway to being a well-regarded analyst, reflected on the 2016 election predications and results, and gave the audience a glimpse into his 2020 election forecast and favorites. 

Watch the entire conversation and read more about the event here.
