Requirements: Locate a news article published during the last 30 days prior to this
essay’s due date or utilize a podcast that speaks to a timely public issue. Identify and discuss the events/behaviors in the report/podcast as an example of the social construction of
deviance. Drawing on course materials, offer an analysis of that which is reported in the paper. The key here is to achieve a balance between description (of your example) and
analysis (drawing on relevant theoretical ideas). The latter should be informed by
material presented in readings and lecture. The point is to demonstrate you can utilize
course material to make analytic sense of things going on in the world and making news!
Format: The paper should be 2-3 pages in length and must be typed and double- spaced. Handwritten papers will not be accepted. Attach a copy of the newspaper article, but do
not assume the reader will necessarily read it (thus you must summarize it in your
analysis).
