John Jug to Lecture in Economics Department

HAMILTON, NY—The Economics Department recently announced that local icon and community figure, John Jug, will deliver a lecture as part of Colgate’s Economics Seminar Series. Jug has been a cornerstone in the Hamilton community for generations, largely due to his substantial economic success attained as an entrepreneur of the local establishment, the Old Stone Jug. From his beginnings in the restaurant industry, he has secured the status of a mogul in the world of business and economics, and among his many notable achievements, he is also a rumored candidate for the Secretary of Commerce in Trump’s upcoming cabinet, due to his extensive experience with handling students’ sweaty dollar bills.

John Jug has also been the recipient of many local and national awards recognizing his economic and community achievements, including Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year in 2014, Atlantic Council’s Global Citizen Award in 2009, an MTV Music Video Award in 2002, the Guinness World Record for “World’s Largest Storage Unit Filled With Cash,” which he seized from Pablo Escobar, the key to the Village of Hamilton, and a lifetime VIP card to the Jug, which he gave to himself.

Chair of the Economics Department, Professor Sparber, said of the lecturer, “It’s truly an honor to be able to listen to John Jug speak. He’s a pioneer and a legend in the field, and he is the inspiration behind my own research and interest in business and economics.”

Jug ‘s lecture is titled, “Jug Dogs and Dollar Bills: Critical Reflections
on Transnational Organized Crime, Money Laundering, and Corruption.” The event will be held in Persson 27 on December 16th and will be catered by N13.
