What Is Success?

Another Milestone. 42 Pounds
I love to people watch, and when I listed that as my favorite activity on my college success guide, Sociology was an obvious choice.  I am a senior at Montana State and planning to graduate in May of 2012 as a Social Scientist. (The only reason why you cannot hear my family clapping is because all of their fingers are crossed) For my big project I am trying to evaluate success within a community. If you are a social scientist you may understand but it is very difficult to define both success and community. In order to understand success you must compare it to other situations a lot like it. 

The good student I am realizes I have so much to learn and lots more questions to ask. I would like your help determining if my weigh in this month was successful. I do know that in order to see success from a Social Science perspective one must be able to measure it. Here are the measurements we have for September:

Pounds Lost in Sept: 13
Total Lost: 43
Inches Lost: 7.5
Total Inches Lost: 32

Social Scientist or not, is that success?

  3. Being a social scientist myself...HELL YEAH it's a success!!! It's measurable, so yes I would deem it a success. Now, are you defining this as a success within the parameters you have outlined for your "community?" Sorry, sociologist is coming out :)
