The Evolved Definition of Community The definition provided in The American College Dictionary from 1964 says “a group of men or women leading a common life according to a rule.” I never really viewed community in this manner.

My neighborhood that I live in is LA, specifically South LA. The neighborhood is quite dangerous every once in awhile you hear gunshots at night, police sirens, and the ambulance sirens there are always something in the neighborhood.

I have enjoyed taking this class this semester. Even though I hit a few hiccups along the way I pushed through. I think it will help in my future endeavor in community development. Many people can benefit by taking this class and learning more about the health issues within a community. The information can also be carried on and utilized within many other professions. I have shared many of my learning experiences from this class with family and friends and have passed on a lot of knowledge. I honestly

play a role in it, I think about community service. Since I have been at Bethany I have been in a couple of different organizations and community service is always a major focus. Right now, I am the active Pledge Master for the fraternity, Gamma Kappa Alpha. By being in this leadership position I am obligated to help out the community and try to make the people in my organization the best that they can be.
