Larry Singell
We are deeply saddened to inform you that our former colleague, Larry Singell, passed away on April 22. Larry joined the Economics department in 1970 and published widely in labor economics and applied microeconomics. He was a larger-than-life figure in our department for many years before moving to administrative posts at CU. He was department chair for many years, helping to reorganize our processes and hiring numerous colleagues. He was later named Dean of the Business School. Larry reformed the Business School and was instrumental in setting a foundation for its growth. He also served several years as a special assistant to Provost Bruce Ekstrand and as a faculty ombudsman.

Larry was a fantastic leader and mentor for our older colleagues, and we hope many younger faculty found a way to get to know him a bit. He always asked about how you were doing, your family, plans, and professional accomplishments. He was one of the most positive people we knew, laughed easily, and was a joy to be around, as is his surviving wife, Barbara. They had three sons, including Larry Singell Jr, a prominent economist now senior vice provost at the University of Texas Austin, and numerous grandchildren.

Dan Kaffine and Akhil Rao (PhD '19)听awarded a NASA Grant to study space debris

Sep 13, 2022鈥�,听NASA Press Release听22-085
As part of NASA's efforts to address orbital debris, the agency is funding research proposals from three university-based teams over the next year to analyze the economic, social, and policy issues associated with space sustainability.

Orbital debris consists of human-made objects orbiting Earth that no longer serve a purpose, including mission-related and fragmentation debris, nonfunctional spacecraft, and abandoned rocket stages.

NASA takes the threat of orbital debris seriously as these objects can endanger spacecraft, jeopardize access to space, and impede the development of a low-Earth orbit economy, including commercial participation. These new awards will fund research that supports the agency鈥檚 commitment to address the problem.

"Orbital debris is one of the great challenges of our era," said Bhavya Lal, associate administrator for the Office of Technology, Policy, and Strategy (OTPS) at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "Maintaining our ability to use space is critical to our economy, our national security, and our nation's science and technology enterprise. These awards will fund research to help us understand the dynamics of the orbital environment and show how we can develop policies to limit debris creation and mitigate the impact of existing debris."

A panel of experts evaluated and selected the following three proposals:

• "Adaptive Space Governance and Decision-Support using Source-Sink Evolutionary Environmental Models," submitted by Richard Linares and Danielle Wood of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Moriba Jah of the University of Texas-Austin

• "An Integrated Assessment Model for Satellite Constellations and Orbital Debris," submitted by Akhil Rao of Middlebury College, Daniel Kaffine of the University of Colorado-Boulder, and Brian Weeden of the Secure World Foundation

• "Communication and Space Debris: Connecting with Public Knowledges and Identities," submitted by Patrice Kohl, Sergio Alvarez, and Philip Metzger of the University of Central Florida

NASA鈥檚 OTPS will make the teams鈥� results publicly available on the agency鈥檚 website. Selected teams also can work with the international听Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development as part of an international call for research proposals focused on orbital debris and space sustainability.听鈥�
