Answer to Question 1

The individual is not held responsible for being ill; the individual is exempt from normal responsibilities; the individual does not like the sick role; and the individual will seek competent help so they can return to their routine.

Answer to Question 2

The term junior college implied the colleges were inferior and provided a less quality education than four-year schools. The term community college emphasizes the school's accessibility rather than its limitation.
