Abstract

This note proposes a simple polynomial-time method for constructing an ex ante stable school-choice lottery satisfying equal treatment of equals. The method applies the ETE reassignment to a constrained efficient stable matching and yields a lottery that is not ordinally dominated by any other ex ante stable lottery.
