Taylor Swift attends Cavs-Knicks in Cleveland with fiance Travis Kelce
UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE IS USING A GLOBAL POP STAR TO HELP STUDENTS LEARN THE INS AND OUTS OF ECONOMICS. WLKY’S MEGAN MATTHEWS WENT TO THE CLASS TODAY AND EXPLAINS HOW TAYLOR SWIFT IS THE PERFECT PERSON FOR THE LESSON. U OF L IS CALLING ALL OF THE SWIFTIES WITH ITS NEW CLASS, SWIFT DYNAMICS, BRINGING TAYLOR SWIFT AND ECONOMICS TOGETHER TO DISCUSS THE IMPACT HER CAREER AND MUSIC HAS MADE ON THE ECONOMY. BETH MUNICH, AN ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF ECONOMICS AT UOFL, SAYS THE IDEA CAME AFTER LOOKING INTO WAYS FOR HER STUDENTS TO APPLY CONCEPTS OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM. WE CERTAINLY HAVE A LOT OF SWIFTIES AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST INTERESTED IN TAYLOR SWIFT. AS YOU KNOW, SHE’S HAD A HUGE ECONOMIC IMPACT. SHE’S AN INCREDIBLE BUSINESSPERSON, AND SO WE THOUGHT, WELL, LET’S LET’S TRY THIS. AT U OF L. THE CLASS IS COMPRISED OF THREE SECTIONS, ALL NAMED AFTER TAYLOR SWIFT’S SONGS AND ALL USING HER CAREER TO APPLY ECONOMIC TOPICS LIKE SUPPLY AND DEMAND. WHY DO WE, YOU KNOW, HOW DO WE DECIDE HOW MUCH WE’RE GOING TO PAY TO GO TO AN ERAS TOUR CONCERT? IT DEPENDS NOT ONLY ON HOW MUCH I VALUE SOMETHING, BUT HOW MUCH, YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY ELSE WANTS TO GO AND HOW MUCH THEY’RE WILLING TO PAY. AND SHE’S NOT JUST HELPING THE ECONOMY. MUNICH SAYS MANY OF HER LYRICS RELATE BACK TO THE SUBJECT, TOO. WE DON’T HAVE INFINITE AMOUNTS OF TIME. AUGUST. TIME IS SLIPPING AWAY AND WE MAKE DECISIONS KNOWING THAT WE’RE MAKING TRADE OFFS ABOUT HOW WE SPEND OUR TIME AND HOW WE SPEND OUR MONEY. MUNICH SAYS AS LONG AS YOU’RE ENROLLED AT THE SCHOOL, THERE’S NO BAD BLOOD. ANYONE CAN ATTEND. PEOPLE ARE COMING IN BECAUSE THEY HAVE SOME INTEREST AND VARYING LEVELS OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT, BUT THEY CAN RELATE TO THE IDEAS AND THEY KNOW THE LYRICS. THE FIRST DAY WAS MONDAY AND STUDENTS WERE, AS TAYLOR SWIFT WOULD SAY, READY FOR IT. MUNICH SAYS SHE HOPES TO MAKE IT A FULL TIME CLASS FOR STUDENTS
