    Responsibility Essay The question, “Should we be focused on Personal or Social Responsibilities?”, recurs time and time again and is sometimes used as themes in novels, though there is no right answer because people’s opinions differ from each other. In the novel, “Of Mice and Men” by John Steinbeck, the topic of responsibility is common throughout the book.

    Sally Jenkins brought up that college athletes should be paid for the work they do on the field/court/track or at least be able to major in the sport they play.

These courses would not only allow the student athletes to learn more about the sport they are interested in and making the college money by, but also help them pursue a career in that sport. Jenkins compares athletes to the students in the Yale theater program.…
