Just saw a great paper by @michaelbriskin.bsky.social ! He shows that WWII led to a massive teacher shortage that led to lower wages and lower educational attainment for affected students #AEFP2025 #Econsky

@john-fallon-econ.bsky.social sees no change in teacher quality despite 1 states efforts to improve rigor of state licensure tests, does see a big drop in # of people who get licensed. Adding to growing questions policy-wise about role of our current set of licensure tests as entry requirements.
