Corporate Sponsorship In Schools

Decent Essays
In any high school, most students would say they would not mind seeing an ad the local pub and grille. What real issues are there with just a poster hanging on the wall for everyone to see? Its effect would most likely be that it could maybe influence the students to go there after the big game on Friday. However, an issue that can arise if an ad maybe offends a specific social or ethnic group. The pros and the cons of having corporate sponsorship in schools can have equal weight. Therefore, corporate sponsorship in schools are not a something horrible as long as the ads do not on any way influence the students negatively or offend any of them.
For any school, there could definitely be some advanagtes for there to be corporate sponsorship

    "In Your Face... All Over the Place": Advertising Is Our Environment is all about advertisements and how they influence us. Jean Kilbourne says that the people that produce advertisements try to trick us into believing that we are actually not influenced by the ads that they produce. Kilbourne believes that advertisers benefit from this strategy because their slogans and jingles linger in our minds and keep reminding us of their company. The companies also phrase their slogans and various other words in order to make us feel as if we are too smart to be tricked by them.…

    This strengthens the overall argument he's making because he's talking about the ads distracting students from their school work, which is wrong because that's what they're at school for. To learn, not to be persuading by an ad to buy something. Aside from the ads taking away from schoolwork, Dave makes a few other points as well. In paragraph to two he says, "The constant push to "buy, buy, buy" is not good for anyone- children or adults. But it seems especially wrong to force this commercial culture on kids at school."…

When someone is drunk, they are a completely different person and that can be very dangerous for the safety of their…

    Advertisements can be found all over the city no matter where you look. They can be presented by television commercials, print ads on billboards, Internet websites, and even the radio. The reasoning behind these ads is to persuade and argue why their product is more important than others. Sometimes these arguments can be used to persuade certain ideas that people think are right or wrong, and cause an argument socially, politically, or even religiously. Imagine this, it’s 1 a.m. and rearing to the end of the night with you and your friends.…

    Targetting children in advertising is a problem with many potential solutions. Some say it should be banned altogether, others suggest that more restrictions should be implemented, and some believe that America's advertisers have a right to market their products however they see fit. It is my belief that aspects from each argument have merit, and that it should be the responsibility of America's parents and schools to teach children about the effects of marketing, both positive and negative. Advertisement is not inherently malicious.…

    Students that have been privileged with an athletic scholarship to play in collegiate sports have to understand that it is not a profession but a linkage to develop contacts with influencers and gatekeepers that will impact their future success into the national leagues or other areas of interest. These student athletes should not be concerned with receiving an annual salary or monthly stipend but focused on the most important component of obtaining a higher education which is to achieve academic success in a sound environment and develop professional skills to become an informed, efficient graduate and integrating those educational experiences into their profession as they make the transition after graduation. Any athletic student given…

    When researching different advertisements, it was very alarming to see these ads actually be aired or displayed for all to see. Media has a big influence on the way people think and act towards others. The media have potential to change racial segregation and inequality.
