Candidate Questions

About 25 percent of the my exams will consist of a randomly drawn selection from candidate questions. I will probably add a few questions as the term continues. The relevant questions for each course are:

Course Paper

I require a paper in all of my courses. The paper is due when you take the exam. You may turn it in early but not later. I encourage every student to turn in drafts throughout the semester for feedback, on the topic, modeling, and writing style. I will try to give feedback on drafts within a week. More details on the paper and grading criteria can be found here. There is also a collection of writing guides in the Environmental Economics library that may prove useful.
