Throughout school I have always been involved in sports. If it as being on the varsity volleyball team or the varsity softball team. At the institutions I have attended sports have always been at the top of the "list" everyone that was in sports was known by what sport they played or how well they played that sports. It seemed that students and faculty put athletes somewhat at the top.While some students had to follow dress code such as not wearing cutt offs the football players were treated differently for example they were allowed. Teachers seemed to be more leinate on the athletes if it was grading easier or letting them miss some class due to a game. Even in college athletes are treated differently. Also in the institutions I have attended the teacher are different. The ones that want you to be relatable to are the ones that sit when they teach or sit comfortably on a desk while the other stand stiff a the front of the class. The body language of a teacher tells alot about their teaching style and how the class will turn out. These instances are relatable to society. The roles that certain students have just due to the label that they or given, or how much respect a teacher is going to get due to how they stand in front of the class. The aspect of school is somewhat like the real world a label or a certain kind of power will get someone a long way.

I understand most of what you are saying and would agree. The only thing I don't totally agree with is you saying that teachers put athletes somewhat at the top, i know this is true at most schools but i don't agree with that. no one label of what you are makes people better than one another or "at the top".
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you are sayin but i don't believe thatthe teachers treated the players aways differetly. Usualy there as s dress code that had to be followed by everyone, and also the teachers don't always treat the players like they always on top. overall the teachers treated the students all the same.
