Description of the Norm Violated We have always been used to the thought of having the proper dress for every occasion and every place. This was already taught to us while we were still young.

Brenda Mora 4 October 2011 SOC 101-3003 Norm Violation Exercise The norm violation exercise that I decided to experiment with was invasion of space. My plan was to go up to random people in small groups of three or four and ask one of them for help‚ thank them‚ hug them‚ and walk away; my friend thought it sounded like fun so he volunteered to perform the encounters.
