Project Title- Social Norms and our University Objective I propose to. . . My group and I are going to do a YouTube video and research different social norms associated with Ohio University which is considered a college full of students and not many commuters. We want to see how norms change behind 'closed doors' if you will. Interest This is interesting because. . . As students here, we interact with our peers on a daily basis. It would be interesting to see how norms tend to change depending on the crowd you surround yourself with. Background reading I will read wikipedia, text book and other basic sociology texts on the following topics:

Social norms, college campus life (what is expected and what goes on), first hand interviews with subjects. I will find popular press discussions of my topic. Perhaps Wikipedia articles, blog entrys, newspaper and magazine stories, etc.- General Plan I plan to. . .d. In doing this project I will be responsible for going out into the Ohio University campus and interviewing several different subjects who are relevant to our topic, about 5 or so. I will film these interviews and pick out relevant parts. We will then piece together a video with more added. Collaboration- I will be working with Jimmy Drake, Mitch Minadeo, and Mike Miller
