2 hour
This course examines the idea of a safe, inclusive community and how to realize it on a college campus. We examine the sociological changes that society experiences as it moves from a social order based on personal interactions & obligations to one based on anonymous market forces, bureaucratic organizations & virtual relationships. We compare the practices that undermine & support community. We engage in action-oriented research concerned with community at Dartmouth.
