As I take on this responsibility, I am reflecting on the privilege of working alongside colleagues, students, and @alumni who are deeply committed to our shared mission. I look forward to listening, learning, and helping CEU continue to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

CEU has been part of my life for over 20 years. It is more than an academic home; it is a community that has shaped my thinking, my values, and my sense of purpose. It is a place where conversations spark change and research meets real-world challenges.

As we said in 2017: if academic freedom is under attack in Hungary and we don’t fight back, it will be under attack sooner than later in other countries, too. #CEU #Harvard

The White House says it is banning the Associated Press from the Oval Office and Air Force One.
The Associated Press continues to ignore the lawful geographic name change of the Gulf of America. This decision is not just divisive, but it also exposes the Associated Press' commitment to misinformation. While their right to irresponsible and dishonest reporting is protected by the First Amendment, it does not ensure their privilege of unfettered access to limited spaces, like the Oval Office and Air Force One. Going forward, that space will now be opened up to the many thousands of reporters who have been barred from covering these intimate areas of the administration. Associate Press journalists and photographers will retain their credentials to the White House complex.

Are you interested in enhancing your descriptive and causal inference by combining QCA with case studies? Happy to see my book out now.
Descriptive and causal inference is enhanced by returning to cases after QCA. SMMR spells out the principles and practices of selecting the best cases in the data.
