LAW 1021:
Tax Policy and Administration Colloquium
Fall 2023 • Section 21
• CRN 54329
Course Description
This seminar will examine the ways in which the tax law is race and gender blind but not race and gender neutral. For example, one recent Treasury study showed that despite race-blind audit selection, Black taxpayers are audited at nearly 3 to 5 times the rate of others, and another showed that some of the most popular tax breaks, such as the home mortgage interest deduction, disproportionately benefit white taxpayers. No prior knowledge of the tax law is expected or assumed – there are no prerequisites for this course; evaluation will be based on four short papers written throughout the semester and one slightly longer final paper, in addition to class participation.
