Arthur Snow has been named the Nicholas A. Beadles Professor of Economics in the Terry College of Business.

Snow, a faculty member in UGA’s economics department since 1986, studies microeconomic theory, public economics and the economics of information and uncertainty.

He has won best paper awards from the Journal of Risk and Insurance and The Geneva Risk and Insurance Review, among other honors.

Snow earned a doctorate and a master’s degree in economics from the University of Wisconsin and a bachelor’s degree in economics from Harvard.

The Beadles professorship was established in 1988 to honor the late expert in arbitration who pioneered the teaching of a joint course of labor economics and labor law at UGA.

Beadles was a scholar who consulted for various organizations, such as NASA, Morgan Manufacturing Co. and Rich’s department store.
