UNCC Urban Institute and Richmond Fed host third annual Data Day

Richard Fry, featured speaker at Charlotte Data Day 2015, asserted that Millenials (born 1981-96) are the most diverse and best educated generation but also face a tougher economy at the start of their careers than previous generations.

Fry, a senior researcher at the Pew Research Center, spoke October 7 at the third annual Charlotte Data Day.  Presented by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and the UNC Charlotte Urban Institute, this annual event strives to make data more accessible to the community.
