Abstract

Brief excerpt from interview: Being a culture in communication class, it ends up being part and parcel of talking about culture as talking about place. In the class we define culture in terms of a set of their shared values and practices and beliefs that are shared by a people who live in the same place, and speak the same language. By being sort of a central component of the definition of culture, any time you are having a writing assignment dealing with culture, you have to be talking about place in a broad definition of the term. The course assignments themselves were not specifically designed with place in mind.
