Write a paper explaining what you did—what was the breach, when did you do it, where did you do it, and who was involved (friends, roommates, family); how it violates a social norm or norms; and what were the reactions you received.

For this assignment, you will perform a breaching experiment or set of breaching experiments. You are now able to go out in public and perform your breaches if you were so inclined. But please be considerate of other people who might wish to practice social distancing. If you do not want to do your breach in public with strangers… which in my opinion is the most fun, you can perform your breach(es) on those you live with (family, roommates, etc…). You will need to pay careful attention to how people act and react to your experiments. Write a paper explaining what you did—what was the breach, when did you do it, where did you do it, and who was involved (friends, roommates, family); how it violates a social norm or norms; and what were the reactions you received. You will then critically analyze and describe why you think people reacted the way they did based on the readings and lectures and incorporating terms and concepts covered to connect to course material.
