What social problems do you see occurring at school?

Asked at Lawrence High School on September 11, 2007

“I think sometimes it's hard to get to know people because of language.”

“Neglecting to understand (other people). I think a lot of people's pride and ego affect that.”

“People getting jealous of who's going out with who causes problems.”

“Everybody has a different personality and different views on things, so I guess you just have to learn to get along with those people.”

“Probably bullying. People who think they are better than others are mean.”

“Kids that dress differently than the normal, like T-shirts and jeans, might get made fun of.”

“People being mean to people that don't deserve being mistreated, like leaving people out and not having someone to sit with at lunch.”

“Just plain rudeness.”
