Title	Community, Conflict, and Ways of Knowing: Ways to Deepen our Educational Agenda
URL	http://www.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/fsd/...
Description	This paper addresses the question: How should we be thinking about the nature of community in the modern college and university? The author suggests that we need a way of thinking about community in higher education that relates it to the central mission of the academy, the generation, and transmission of knowledge. The way we think about community in settings of higher learning, in other words: must be different from the way we think about community in other settings, like the civil society, the neighborhood, the church, or the workplace.
