[a] LIST AND DEFINE the "agents of socialization" discussed in class.
Agents of socialization are social groups which prepare us for our place in society.
FAMILY: gender identification- our social position
SCHOOL: reinforces gender identification- our social position
PEERS: teach us how to relate to the other gender-our social position
MASS MEDIA: provides us examples of gender relations-our social position.
[b] DISCUSS, with an example from your own life, how EACH of the agents of socialization has given you your expectations for your behavior in the 'status' of college graduation. I want a SEPARATE paragraph for each agent and how/what it has taught you about being a college graduate.
