Answer 2

You can write about the Stanford Prison Study. I believe it was performed in the 70's or so. A Stanford psychologist, Phillip Zimbardo, performed a "role play" study on 21 college students (all males). He created a "prison" in the psychology department, and had 10 of the males be "guards" and the other 11 be "inmates". The first day, everyone played along because they knew it wasn't real. Then as the "guards" became brutal, the "prisoners" were acting more like prisoners. The students' personalities changed within one day...anyway, it's pretty interesting.

Answer 3

I think something on the psychology of color would be interesting. There have been many studies on how the color of your surroundings and the colors you wear can affect your moods. If you use those established results it would be cool to contrast it with what colors your campus has used for interior paint in certain areas. Is the color of the dorm rooms conducive to study or sleep? How about the walls in the library, in the classrooms? Is the gymnasium painted to infuse students with energy? aggression? What about inside the campus chapel? If you turn out really interesting results, I bet the student newspaper would be interested in publishing it or featuring some aspects of it.
