Hi Scott, I wanted to check in with you because I am a SU Sociology 1964
graduate. I also was the Director of Extension Education and Training and
later the Chair of the Human Resources Certificate Program at SU 1978-1982.
>From one SU student to another, good luck on your thesis. We certainly need
more genuine community in our nation and the world at large. I am glad you
chose this focus for your thesis.
Best Wishes, Nancy Walton-House

Nancy,
You're right on track with my purpose. I am working this summer on my
graduate thesis paper (Seattle U.). The topic Community: The theory and
practice of developing community. So your reference list is excellent.
Most appreciated.

Hi Scott – I just finished my thesis on community conversation and used Open
Space as my research tool. I too had a hard time figuring out what community
was exactly and found lots of different meanings for the word depending on
your situation. I have skimmed my reference list and found some of the
sources that I used to define community. What ever definition you like, I
think that community is a vital, exciting, challenging, rewarding place that
we create for ourselves where ever we go!
Be well,
Nancy

I have read a lot of e-mails about "community." Does anyone have a top 10
list of references around what community means? What it is, how it happens,
why it matters?
Live life and live it large,
