I am the founder and president of the Fiscal Challenge, which is an educational nonprofit whose mission is to enhance students' understanding of fiscal policy.
Each year we put out a call to action for college students around the country to solve a pressing fiscal problem. During the fall and early spring semesters, teams of students work to devise their solution. In mid spring term they submit a video presentation. We evaluate the presentations and pick the top teams to join us in Washington DC. During their visit teams have the opportunity to present and defend their proposals before a panel of experts from the think-tank and policy making community.
