Community Post

Community, in my opinion, is a group of people who share a likeness. The likeness can be can be things such as a geographical location, a common hobby, or a social space. I think community can also be described as more than a few people being a part of something, for example, I am a writing studies major therefore I am a part of a large community of students who are working toward the same degree.

Community, I think can be defined as a large even massive groups of people, like all the students at UW are part of a student community. Communities can also be extremely small, like a few people who share an interest, such as a sewing circle. Community just seems to define a specific group of people, large or small.

The word community also seems to create a sense of unity or belonging, even more so than the word group. Community is more sincere and encompasses an idea of voluntary membership. Community invokes a positive tone and equality.
