Jr at Whitney

If Junior went to Whitney Young he would be an outcast. If Junior attended our school it definitely would not be like the school on the reservation but, he still would be view as "weird" to the majority of people to me. Students most likely wouldn't go out there way to meet him or get to know him on a deeper level. Especially is you are in a "cooler" group of people, you’re not suppose to or expected to interact with people like Junior. Junior would most likely spend most of his time in the arts building, the arts building is more relaxed and accepting and Junior does enjoy drawing. Also I feel that the artsy people at Whitney would be more accepting and less judgmental  He would eat lunch either off campus everyday alone so he can truly spend time with himself, or he would eat in the maze somewhere hidden and quiet. If he was to even make the team at Whitney he would probably gain a pretty solid supportive base. I say that because when you’re on a team it doesn't matter where you come or from its how you play and perform on the team. There are even special education kids that participate on school teams and thrive on them and aren't made fun of either. There are so many types of people in the school that there is at least one person for everyone! In general i believe that he wouldn't have to hide because Whitney Young kids understand that people do come from all across the city and from different homes, it doesn’t matter Although Junior may change the way he acts around the cooler kids in attempt to come off as a "cooler" person. . I wouldn't expect much from junior anyways because I most likely would not even talk to him if he came to the school so hiding himself wouldn't make a difference to me anyways. Overall his experience would be a little bit better then Rearden, but only a bit because we are more diverse not only racially but personality wise too.
