Your paper should be organized in sections, with headings and subheadings, as appropriate. Tables and graphs may be included within the text or as appendices. Make sure to cite your references in the text and use a consistent citation style throughout the paper.
The bibliogrpahy does not need to be annotated.

Paper Assignment Guidelines
The paper will be on a government program of your choice at any level of government (federal, state or local). It should be 8-10 pages in length (not including pages used for graphs and the bibliography). The paper must contain at least 3 academic journal and 3 popular press references. The appendix to Chapter 1 in the Rosen and Gayer text provides a list of potential academic journals. At a minimum, the paper should address the following
questions:
Is there a market failure in this area and how does the program deal with this failure?
Why is the program at that particular level or levels of government?
What is the current scope of the program (e.g., absolute and relative size, beneficiaries)?
What is the source of program funding?
What has been the growth of the program over the past 20-30 years?
Have there been any efforts to change or reform the program? What are these policies?
What economic problems such as equity and efficiency are associated with the program?
Your grade will be based on how you answer these questions as well as on application of economic theory, clarity and organization. You are expected to consult with me during the semester. The choice of topic will be the start of our individual consultation. I recommend that you meet with me to ask questions, update me on your activity, and explain your strategy and schedule for completing the paper.
