As I have previously stated, I have chosen the subculture of Spectrum at Ball State. I chose to study this subculture because it is all about helping kids at Ball State fit in. Although I am not gay, a lesbian, bisexual, or a transgender student here, I know what it feels like to not fit in at school. I used to be extremely overweight when I was younger and kids would make fun of me constantly. The kids in this subculture are just like you and me but some people chose to put them down for their sexual preference. I hope to discover many things when studying this subculture. For example, I want to find out what some of these kids have been through and how they overcame these obstacles. I also would like to other people (ones who might not ever consider going to this group) to understand that these kids are no different because of who they are and who they chose to have relationships with.

Hey. This is a great topic idea. I really don't know much about this group on campus. Have fun with it!

I think this is a good topic as well. Way to step out of your comfort zone!
ReplyDeleteJulia, I think this is an interesting topic that you chose. I don't know anything about it so I am interested to see what it is all about.
