Western Undergraduate Economics Review

The Western Undergraduate Economics Review Annual 2009 issue is now available for your reading pleasure. It features papers written during the 2008 calendar year. Each year we try to attract more submissions in an effort to produce a high-quality, interesting Review. If any of your students write papers which you think merit publication, please encourage them to consider submitting them. The 2010 issue will contain papers written in the Spring Semester of the last academic year (2009), and the fall semester of this year. Information about the WUER and past issues can be found on its website.
