Congratulations to Newly Elected 2010 Fellows of the RSAI

I was delighted and honored to have served on the Regional Science Association International (RSAI) Fellows selection committee for the past two years. This year's selection committee consisted of Professor Geoff Hewings of the University of Illinois (who was also the Chair of the committee), Professor Piet Rietveld of the Free University in Amsterdam, and yours truly.

Professor Aura Reggiani of the University of Bologna in Italy
