Community

PEER GROUPS AND COMMUNITY SERVICE People should help take care of one another.  This is an all-level program, which means our learning community is comprised of a range of students from freshpersons to seniors, including transfer students.  Our experience is that the recipe for success includes a weekly meeting of 4-7 committed people, the sharing of food, and a home-like environment. Peer groups also will provide support for individual research projects as well as the 3 hours of community service each student must complete during the quarter.  Look at Arthur Deikman’s “Service as a Way of Knowing (http://www.deikman.com/wayofknowing.html) to explore how and why community service is an integral part of our work.  A brief (200-400 word) description of your experience of community service as a way of knowing is due Wednesday of week eight. Your description must engage Deikman's text and demonstrate how your community service was a way of knowing.
