Running head: Abstract
Boarding school refers to the well-crafted package where the respective student will
get exposure to the academics, sorts, extracurricular activities along with the necessary
supervision. These institutions were creates the culture which enforces the children n to abide
by the stringent code of conduct. However studies shows that children in USA do not long to
go in boarding school. This has resulted to a development of a syndrome called “boarding
school syndrome”, according to this syndrome the child learns to fake maturity and hide
emotions (Schaverien). The current problem faced in the boarding school acknowledges to
the difference in the race, class and the dilemmas for the people who are aspiring to move up
the ladder to social hierarchy (Cole et al). The social inequality that is being reflected in my
problem statement is a reflection of the particular discipline I belong. As sociology studies
the dynamic aspect of the relationship pattern, the inequality that has been enforced in the
institution of boarding schools is a matter of enquiry. This work will advocate on the current
forms of inequality in boarding schools of USA.
For addressing this problem, I interviewed the students who are currently going to the
few boarding along with their parents. I have also acquired data from the secondary sources.
The major findings of this research are related to the exploration of newer forms of
inequality. In addition, I have realised that inequality does not necessarily mean
discrimination; it is important to distinguished between equality, uniformity and equity.
The larger implications of these findings will be to enhance the inclusive development
strategies, which will boost the healthy environment of the country.
