week 3 question 1
There are a lot of norms a San Jose State University Some are explicit and some are implicit like students are suppose to be respectful, do our work on time and act a certain way while in class and so are teachers. This is something that doesn't need to be said because we have being following theses norms since grade school. There are also norms in clubs on campus people are expected to meet at a certain time and discuss issues and schedule events. In the group that i spend time with we definitely have group norms that we follow. We always do what we say were going to do whether its buying alcohol for the weekend get together or its cooking dinner on the weekend. I identified both S.J.S.U. norms and the norms me and my friends follow by just thinking of all the things we do everyday and what is expected from myself and what i expect from other people.

Just like you I find myself following some of the same norms with my groups of friends as well as at school. Norms that have been in place since we were little are the obvious ones that we just do without thinking. You would never just blurt something out without rasing your hand (unless you want to be that annyoing person in the class). Living up to and following through with norms between friends is very important to me. I believe keeping their trust and respectt hat you will do what is the set norms in your group helps build great relationships.
