I remember that the Wired magazine had a Expired/Tired/Wired joke, where they used to write three things, one definitely passè, one representing the current standard, and finally the next thing in the field (usually referred to some technology).
If I had to apply the joke, tongue in cheek, to math requirements for econ PhD, I'd write multivariable/vector calculus = expired, basic Analysis/Advanced calculus (epsilon delta arguments) = tired, Advanced Analysis(measure theory, functional) = wired.
Or is it?
