New COMM-ORG papers

[Discussion list for COMM-ORG]

Hi COMM-ORG,

Just in time for reading by the lake during your final summer vacation, 
or preparing for your fall classes, I have finally gotten the first set 
of 2008 COMM-ORG papers up. They are available from 
http://comm-org.wisc.edu/papers.htm

The papers are:

* Keith Bartholomew and Mira Locher, People & Place: Humanities-based 
Pedagogy in Architecture and Planning

* Ginger Moored, Intergenerational Collaboration at Appalshop

* Ann Russo & Melissa Spatz, Communities Engaged in Resisting Violence

* Rhonda A. Waskiewicz, Vera Walline, and Matthew Bain, Exploring Area 
Health Education Centers’ Role in Assisting with CME Opportunities for 
Rural Physicians in Northeast Pennsylvania: A Community-Based Research 
Project


"People & Place" describes an attempt to turn a profession in a more 
community-based direction. "Intergenerational Collaboration at 
Appalshop" is a ground-level look at one of my favorite grass-roots 
media organizations. "Communities Engaged in Resisting Violence" 
explores ground-level examples of community-based violence prevention. 
"Exploring Area Health Education..." shows another attempt at turning a 
profession in a more community-based direction.

As always, you are welcomed to discuss the issues raised by the papers 
on the list or off.
