Evening chats with Professor d'Amico about his political and economic beliefs were one of the highlights of my time at JLI - every new idea he presented would spark vigorous debate.

The faculty were incredibly knowledgeable and, being able to talk to them, one on one, was something I had never gotten to experience and something which solidified my passion for PPE.

The opportunity to listen to David Friedman’s political and economic ideas was amazing; his willingness to entertain debate and be challenged added to my enjoyment of his teaching.
