An open invitation to the leaders of the St. Louis Community to help the students at St. Louis Community College at Meramec come to critical awareness about their community in an online essay project that will be interactive with community organizations. 

This project began the first full week of October and will conclude the first full week of November during the fall semester of the 1999-00 academic year.

"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.
Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away."
