    This document describes and compares four discourse communities: family, UTEP/pre-business, friends, and church. Each community is defined by its purpose, requirements for joining, common genres of communication, and shared vocabulary. The family community focuses on love and support using oral communication, texts, and emails. The UTEP/pre-business community aims to educate for career success through online platforms like Blackboard. Friends help each other have fun through talking, texting, and social media. And the church community centers around faith, learning about God, and helping others through religious texts, preaching, and music.
