Economics 332: Environmental Economics and Public Policy

J. Tiemstra, Department of Economics

This project is designed to evaluate the success of the College's recycling program, and to suggest possibilities for improving it. Students collected information about current practices on the campus, and evaluate those practices in the light of the literature and other resources available on the topic of recycling. By having each student work on a different part of the the project, and then coming together periodically during class sessions to share and coordinate results, students will also improve their skills for working collaboratively in a group.
