Mark Kurt discusses NC’s unemployment rate

Mark Kurt, assistant professor of economics, spoke with the Associated Press for a July 24 article on North Carolina’s unemployment rate.

In “NC unemployment steady for third straight month,” Kurt analyzed the state’s unemployment report, which was released July 20.

“While the overall employment picture looks like it deteriorated, when you drill down a little bit there’s some good signs,” Kurt said in the article.
