From its conception, Equilibrium, the Harker Economics Magazine, has always been a vessel for learning. Our mission is to illuminate the importance of economics in the modern world by inspiring young thinkers beyond the borders of classwork and advance their interest in the field. We hope to share the strength of their passion through their written work and commit ourselves to the pursuit of economic curiosity and scholarship.
