The correct answer is B) conducting research.
The first step in developing a policy to address the rising cost of college is conducting research.
Federal Officials or school authorities are not able to make important decisions if these decisions are not supported by clear evidence. That is why conducting research is a very important step before making any adventurous or simple decisions that affect so many people.
To develop policy, decision-makers need to have all the necessary information such as the reasons that generated the problem, who is affected, what the benefits are going to be if there are some risks or disadvantages and the number of people benefit by the new policy.
