Finally, discuss whether or not you think that program still works or should be discontinued.

2.This essay needs to have a heading, numbered pages, be double-spaced throughout, cited following either MLA guidelines, and include a works cited list.

3.Sources: You must use at least four sources. Two of these sources must be books (not your textbooks).
