Public Spheres

Public Spheres are places that people can go to post, publish or share their own opinions. There are many different places like this around the USI campus. For example, as you walk on the sidewalks through campus you will often see bulletin boards with flyer's or posters to remind students of events coming up. Certain groups on campus like to advertise their cause and what they stand for so that way if people share those same interests, they are able to join. Some of these groups could be Go Green or Religious affiliated groups on campus. Some other public spheres include the newspaper that is sent out, our local USI television station for on campus residence, the bulletin board inside the library, dorm rooms and many others. Public spheres are located everywhere and always differ in their interests, concerns and locations. For example, the events that occur within a group such as Go Green are going to be totally different than those going on inside a dorm room. This shows that all public spheres are unique and can be used in different ways.
