To a great semester


Social, what does it mean to be social? In my own words I would say it mean to interact with other individuals in order to start up a conversation. During this semester of sociology I learn a lot about the world and the way people interact and view each other. This class was really helpful because before it I never knew how the world was view in a certain type of people eyes. Sociology helps us to understand the interaction between individuals and society, this class made me understand how people and society behave.
Watching some of the videos provided for us throughout this semester was interesting, but the most interesting one to me I think was the video “people like us”. Watching this video I felt bad at the beginning to see how people view other just because of their status, it was sad to see how those people think their better than other jus because they have a little more money than others. No offense to anyone but just because you have more money than others that doesn’t make or give you the right to treat other like their lower than you, that’s just my opinion.
I learn a lot from this class and as a criminal and justice major it helped me a lot out to see how society is. It showed me why people do the thing they do, reading all the chapters, articles and watching all the videos was helpful because who knew humans being behave the way they do. Some people have different opinion about others while some have the same but I don’t think it fair to judge us on how we look or our class.
This class was helpful in many ways, I learned a lot about the world and the way things are and way people behave. Before this class the things I do I never knew what it was that I was doing now I know some of the things we do can be classifies as deviance. It’s surprising to know that we are doing things that are deviance and don’t even know it. Now when I see my friends, family or co-workers doing something deviance I tell them, and the look at me as if am crazy.
I believe that this sociology class will benefit me throughout which ever profession I chose to go into too and I think everyone should take this class. I enjoy the professor and I  enjoy the discussion me and my fellow classmates have, it was an amazing semester and I look forward to using what I learn to help me understand the world a little more better.
