Discourse Community Definition

My definition of a discourse community is basically any group of people who share similar interest and knowledge about a topic, have some common background or experiences, and share some way of communicating with each other.

The student body and I know how difficult it can be the first few days of college to navigate around campus and find the simple things like where to find the library, computer lab, printers, and most importantly where the classes are.
