Caroline Fohlin is an economics professor at Emory University who specializes in corporate finance, venture capital, economic history, and financial market structures.[1][2]
Education[edit]
Fohlin graduated from Tufts University with a bachelor's degree in mathematics and quantitative economics in 1988. She earned a PhD in economics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1994.[1]

Fohlin served on the California Institute of Technology faculty from 1994 to 2004. In 2005, she took a position at Johns Hopkins University.[3] She joined the Emory University faculty in 2012.[4] She currently serves as an editor of Financial History Review.[5]
2024 protest arrest[edit]
In April 2024, Fohlin was arrested at an Emory University protest against the treatment of Palestinians during the Israel-Hamas War.[6] Fohlin was charged with battery and disorderly conduct.[7][8] An opinion piece by Lydia Polgreen for The New York Times cited Fohlin's arrest as an example of the "horrifying" use of force against pro-Palestine demonstrations on college campuses.[9] On the April 29 edition of CNN Newsroom, anchor Jim Acosta said he could not "get over" the footage of Fohlin's arrest and criticized police for their "heavy-handed tactics."[10]
