Washington D.C. "Gets Fiscal" with Budgetball on the Mall
This weekend, government's policymakers went toe-to-toe with college students — not in a debate or a closed-door session, but by getting "fiscal" on the Budgetball battlefield. In a statement read during the opening ceremony, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner congratulated the players for taking part in an event to help broaden public awareness about responsible financial behavior. In the end, the University of Miami triumphed over seven other teams, including second-place finishers Philander Smith college.
