You will need to write a minimum two-page paper that reports on a current WSJ article.

The first page should document the name of the article, the author's name, and the date of the article. Begin your report by describing the content of the article stating the scope of the issues, specific consequences or benefits, and what the author is proposing as a solution to the macroeconomic topics addressed in the article. This page is akin to a reader's digest of the article.

The second page is about your critique and analysis of what you have read. Students are expected to analyze and write a bout what their selected article means and interpret the consequences or benefits of the proposed solution by the author. This page represents your personal commentary applying your knowledge gained from classroom assignments on all relevant macroeconomics topics.
