520 |a As the Grim Reaper pulls a student out of class to be a "victim" of drunk driving in a program called "Every 15 Minutes," the author observes the ritual through a folklorist's lens. This book examines why hundreds of American schools and communities each year organize these mock tragedies without any national sponsorship or coordination. Often, the event is complete with a staged accident in the parking lot, a life-flight helicopter, and faux eulogies for the "dead" students read in school assemblies. Grounding her research in play theory, frame theory, and theory of folk drama, the author investigates key aspects of this emergent tradition, paying particular attention to its unplanned element - enabled by the performance's spontaneous nature and the participants' tendency to stray from the intended frame. The author examines such variations in terms of the program as a whole, analyzing its continued popularity and weighing its success as perceived by participants.
