You may also choose a policy issue that has not been directly addressed in class, but it should be related to issues that had been discussed and analyzed. Whatever the topic chosen, you are expected to go beyond the reading materials in the class reader. If you have not yet learnt to use the vast library resources available, please ask your TA for some pointers.
Students are to work in groups of no larger than four.
Members of a group need not be in the same section. A good write-up would describe the policy issue, analyze the problems faced, and discuss previous proposals that have been made. Succinctness will be rewarded. The papers will be due on the day the in-class presentations are made. If group members are from different sections, you should decide which section you would prefer to make your presentation to, and let your TA know two weeks in advance.
