Computer Science Club Community Analysis

Superior Essays
Plans and actions are needed in order to get a group of people to come together towards a particular issue in today’s society. As a result, the community can be involved if persuaded with the idea of a great plan. Subsequently, I will argue that my personal action is the most effective way of presenting it to the community. Consequently, not everything can go as planned so a good second option can be used as a safety blanket that will be explained later on in this paper. Additionally, the focus will also be on potential obstacles that can occur while trying to persuade the community with my action. To begin with, my plan is to post fliers across Lone Star College Cy-Fair to have more women join in on the Computer Science Club. In this situation, …show more content…
Similarly, while women are my targeted audience it is also important for men to join in on the cause to also educate others on the issue.

    Thoreau and Civil Disobedience I, myself, like many citizens have a cynical view of the government. I am skeptical of their morals and often question if their decisions are an act of self-interest. Additionally, the average citizen is often also dissatisfied by the response of the government. Nevertheless, citizens want the government to serve their needs by being active and responsive; however, how can it do that if it can’t accurately assess what the public wants. The government cannot serve its citizens if they don’t speak up.…

What then can we do? We must be the best citizens possible. Only then can real, albeit slow, progress can be made, and has been made.…

    In order to resolve this problem, I had to focus my recruitment. I sat down with my team members and brainstormed ways to target men. Based on personal judgment and feedback, I decided to take a multi-pronged approach. I contacted professors of majors stereotypically filled with men and asked them to make an announcement to their class about the project. I created flyers specifically for men.…

    Collective action has been incorporated into many societies as a result of the inequalities that these communities have been suffering from.

In “Chicano Struggles for Racial Justice: the Movement’s Contribution to Social Theory”, the author, Ramon Gutierrez claims that collective action of both Chicanos and African Americans contributed to the study of social theory, including the internal colonialism theory.…
