Chambliss gives a description of two groups of students who engage most often engage in delinquent behaviors only that the society perceives and treats each group differently. While the community perceives the saints as rich and well-behaved delinquents (a situation that makes them get away with all wrongs they do), the Roughnecks are perceived as the ill-mannered and poor delinquents that often collide with instructors at school, the society and the law.

Society seems to glorify the rich regardless of their wrong doing while the same society is often willing to quickly condemn the poor even with the slightest provocation. From the sociological perspective, I think the story of the Saints and the rough necks exemplifies the labeling theory at work. According to the labeling theory, if a person is repeatedly told that he is a failure or a criminal, eventually he or she ends up becoming one.
