This document discusses how society is organized into groups. It defines social groups as collections of interdependent individuals who pursue shared goals. Primary groups are small, intimate groups involving face-to-face interaction over long periods of time, while secondary groups are larger and less intimate with more impersonal, objective-focused relationships over shorter times. Self-categorization theory holds that people define their own group membership based on how they perceive non-members of out-groups compared to their in-group. Social groups are important as they transmit culture, exert social control, socialize individuals, generate ideas, and facilitate communication.

The document discusses the different types of groups within society. It defines primary groups as small social groups with close, personal relationships between members, such as family and friends. Secondary groups are larger groups with more formal and impersonal relationships centered around specific interests or goals. Examples of secondary groups given are workplace colleagues and clubs. In-groups are social groups an individual identifies as a member of, while out-groups are those they are not part of. Reference groups are those used for social comparison regardless of membership. Networks are webs of weak social ties connecting individuals through various affiliations. The document provides details on how these different group types vary in size, relationships, goals, influence and control over members.

Society is organized through social institutions that assign people roles and functions. A group consists of two or more people who interact and are physically together, requiring interaction and physical proximity among members. Other important human clusters studied in sociology include aggregates based on shared physical location but no interaction, social categories with common identifying traits but no social interaction, and collectives characterized by unstructured alternative norms and organization.

This document discusses how society is organized into social groups. It defines social groups as collections of interdependent individuals who share goals and values. Primary groups are small, intimate groups whose members interact closely over long periods of time, while secondary groups are larger and more specialized with impersonal, objective-focused interactions over shorter times. Reference groups are groups people compare themselves to in order to guide their behaviors and attitudes. Social networks refer to the sets of relationships between individuals or groups within a society.
Social Group by Dr.Shilpa Nagori
This document discusses social groups and their characteristics. It defines social groups as collections of humans in close proximity with common goals and codes of conduct. Social groups are classified based on size, closeness, and the nature of relationships between members. Primary groups are small, stable, and have intimate face-to-face relationships while secondary groups are larger and have impersonal and indirect relationships among members. Both primary and secondary groups are important for socializing individuals and maintaining social order.

Forms of Social Group.pptx
There are several types of social groups that form based on different criteria. Primary groups are small and intimate, consisting of strong social ties like family. Secondary groups are larger and more impersonal, based on common goals and interests like coworkers or clubs. In-groups are those with which people identify as members, while reference groups influence behaviors even if not a member. For groups to function effectively, leadership should be democratic and problem-solving cooperative rather than competitive. Social conformity, facilitation, and good leadership can help groups grow through shared norms and goals.
The Human Group
The human group is an essential part of human existence. People are born into groups, socialize within groups, learn from groups, and are mourned by their groups at death. A group is composed of two or more interacting individuals guided by shared norms to achieve common objectives. It involves a specified number of people who recognize each other as members and non-members. Social groups imply both shared traits and awareness of others working toward socially shared goals.

Social groups can be primary or secondary. Primary groups are small and intimate, like families, while secondary groups are larger and more impersonal, like workplaces. Both types of groups serve important functions - primary groups help with socialization and identity formation, while secondary groups provide structure, opportunities, and help broaden perspectives. Groups influence health through child-rearing, social support, health behaviors, and access to healthcare services. Overall, social groups are essential to human development and well-being.

Teams differ from groups in that they create synergy from members and use shared leadership rather than a single focused leader.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
