A semester of studying public policy concluded with the formation of student political coalitions. These coalitions allowed us to explore the policy tools we had studied and how to implement them to solve a real-world problem.
This student coalition project included a 7 part written component as well as a mock legislative hearing among educators and peers. I was responsible for the two most intensive portions of the project, the Design Analysis and the Legislative Testimony Scripts.
