introduction to sports in film and literature

You must answer numbers 1 and 2. Then select and respond to #3 or 4. In all, you will have three questions answered.

All responses should in essay format with complete sentences and paragraphs. Be sure to provide evidence and examples to support your assertions. There is no specific page requirement; write as fully and completely as possible and until you have nothing more to say for each question. When appropriate, use as many references to course ideas and course material (i.e., film, documentaries, short stories, reading excerpts, class discussion/lectures). Only use texts that have been covered or assigned. Also, try not to double up on the use of texts too much. You want to demonstrate a good awareness of multiple readings/films. Less credit will be given if you reference the same text in multiple answers.

You must answer # 1 and 2

1.How does hubris play a part in the film Eight Men Out? Compare and contrast it with another one of the texts (either from the Best American Sports Writing text or one of the examples we viewed in class). How does the hubris in this story play out in comparison (similarities or differences) to Eight Men Out?

2.Read the article “Mourning Glory” (see the link below and also under “Midterm Exam” on our ULearn page). There are aspects of this story that can connect to Joseph Campbell’s explanation of “the hero’s journey.” Analyze the journey of the Williamsport High School baseball team and highlight some (not all 12) aspects that connect to Campbell’s definition. Also, make some connections or point out differences between this journey and the journey of the U.S. Women’s World Cup Soccer Team, as shown in the film Dare to Dream (links are under “Midterm Exam” on our Ulearn page). Focus on how these two stories have similar themes but present them in different ways. Be sure to use ideas and terms from the course.

Critical Analysis of the Criminal Justice System

Research Paper on Best Practices for Specialty Courts 

Background: We have read about and discussed the pervasive impact that the use of controlled dangerous substances (CDS) / illicit drugs has had on your community, not only as it relates to high addiction levels, but also to its direct correlation with the commission of other crimes. 

Assignment: The objective of this assignment is to evaluate the purpose and effectiveness of a specialty court known as Drug Court. Drug Court can, by the use of individually tailored treatment modalities controlled by the court and strict compliance features, reduce individual drug reliance and overall rates of recidivism. Some studies show success, while others show the overall cost of such courts to be grossly disproportionate to their degree of success.

Students are to use library resources to find at least three journal articles relating to the effectiveness of Drug Court. The submitted paper must be a minimum of five pages of 12-point font (Arial or Times New Roman only), double-spaced type, not including cover page and bibliography. Resources must be reflected in a bibliography, using APA citation rules.  

Paper Formatting Requirements:

  • Cover page: Include the title of the paper, your name, the class title, and date of submission.
  • Section 1 — Introduction: Make an introductory statement about the topic of your paper. What point are you attempting to make, provide, or discover? Provide the purpose of the paper.
  • Section 2: Summarize the main points of the three articles.
  • Section 3: Compare and contrast the three articles. Do they reach the same conclusion? How are they alike? How do they differ? How does the text deal with the topics as discussed in the articles? What conclusions are reached in the three articles?
  • Section 4 – Conclusion: Based on your analysis of the articles and their conclusions, along with the text, do you believe drug courts are an effective use of resources, decrease incarceration rates and reduce overall recidivism rates?
  • References: References must be correctly cited in APA format.
