Discuss how the article describes the athlete and the incident. Is the language like what would be used for
male athletes? In addition, discuss how you felt the article made the athlete appear. For example, was the
athlete respected or disrespected, either by the article or by the sports organization?
Then, considering the organization’s response, consider the incident or event you chose for your final project
(The Penn State Abuse Scandal). Explain how gender may have played a role in your chosen incident.
