From the Paper:

"Perhaps no field of social studies has a more pervasive and important role on the way we live than the field of economics. Economics students must learn to think deeply and creatively about important economic concerns facing the country and the world as a whole. Because economists have such a wide and varied set of perspectives and political views, they often come up with vastly different conclusions. They in turn apply these varied perspectives to such issues as economic efficiency, economic growth, globalism, cultural values, and environmental concerns. One need only to look inside a newspaper on a given day to realize the importance of studying economics."
