Essay Problem: Deviance & Social Control
Write 700 words essay on ONE of the questions below
Sociology matters because it explains why you accept certain social norms almost without thinking-and why you pay a price if you break those norms.
1) What social norms were you expected to conform to when you became a student at your college or university? Are they similar to or different from the norms you grew up with?
2) What happens to students who do not conform to accepted social norms? Is social control on your campus stricter or more lenient than social control in other parts of society?
3) Is crime a problem on your campus? If so, what social forces might underlie it?
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
