The seminar explores Italian students' college choices, examining whether future earnings matter more than personal preferences and self-confidence in their abilities. Preliminary results show that these factors have a greater influence on decisions, suggesting that providing information about expected salaries is unlikely to significantly alter students' choices.

The seminar examines employer abuse of power and the contexts where it is most prevalent.
