individual’s life. The main theory that best supports this interview is Hirschi’s social bond theory. This theory suggests that there are four elements of bonding that "tie the individual to conventional society and thus prevent delinquency (Bynum and Thompson, 1999: 193)." These elements are: attachment, commitment, involvement, and belief. According to this theory, if all four elements are present in an individual the individual will not commit delinquent acts. Yet if an individual

I. Overview of the topic/problem statement My topic is to discover gang prevention programs and their effectiveness. The prevention programs being discussed are the G.R.E.A.T. program and the Comprehensive Anti-Gang Initiative (CAGI). The problem is that these prevention methods are not effective in alternatives to gang life. The alternatives could include family, protection, and these support that gangs give to their members.

Joe Turner's Come and Gone is a play demonstrating the movement of African Americans to freedom in 1910. The play is set in a boarding house which is a transitional place for newly freed African American to harbor while they adjust their newly-found freedom.

Often times in literature the body becomes a symbolic part of the story. The body may come to define the character, emphasize a certain motif of the story, or symbolize the author’s or society’s mindset. The representation of the body becomes significant for the story. In the representation of their body in the works of Marie de France’s lais “Lanval” and “Yonec,” the body is represented in opposing views. In “Lanval,” France clearly emphasizes the pure beauty of the body and the power the ideal
There are a lot of aspects that should be taken into account when determining what makes an athlete successful. One could argue that natural ability is one of the determining factors which leads to success. For example, if an athlete has dreams of playing in the NBA then height makes a difference. There aren’t many successful players in the league under six feet tall. One could argue that level of competition plays a role in the development of an athlete.

I can’t think of a more fitter middle school that sends students into high school as rock stars. As for me, I’ve learned
the central business district, usually adjacent to heavy industrial areas of the city (Thompson and Bynum 2016). They identified areas with high rates of young offenders as high-delinquency areas. This corresponds with the findings of Ernst Burgess’ whose Concentric Zone Theory identified the same central districts of the city as having the highest rates of crime and delinquency (Thompson and Bynum
