American Culture

If a cultural anthropologist were to walk through the halls of Fremd High School, I think they would see many of the typical stereotypes. The stereotype of Americans being materialistic would be proven by the number of uggs and nike shoes worn by students. By simply driving into the Fremd parking lot they'd notice that we drive big cars, and by walking through the hallway, they'd see our reliance on technology. Technology is everywhere and students are constantly texting or listening to music.

I totally agree with you. Kids are always showing off by trying to wear the most expensive things, like Uggs or even Beats headphones. Technology basically runs kids' lives and that is kind of sad.

I agree with seeing the typical stereotypes. Technology and material things are definitely a problem for most teenagers today.

I totally agree with you. Kids use there iPhones and iPods constantly and can't get off of them. Technology plays a big part in Fremd. The cars that we drive to school shows that we have money and use it in our wheels.
