ABSTRACT
Each year scholars and practitioners from institutions, organizations, and corporations around the world gather for one week to discuss their work and see the work of others from across the wide range of practices that compose the SIGCHI community. The scale and diversity of this gathering offers an opportunity that is special and only available during the short, intense week. During the conference there is a session dedicated to the discussion of priorities for us as members of a community, and for the community itself as a part of the fabric of SIGCHI. For the Design Community this is a rather complex endeavor because our constituents are and our fellow communities understand the pursuit of design in a variety of ways. But this embodies the valuable asset that our community has become as one part of SIGCHI. So let's discuss these topics.
