教师, 管理员, 工作人员, 学生, 和 alumni are invested 和 involved in the greater CSTM community. Part of forming community depends on people's openness, 他们的弹性, 以及他们的兴趣, 不仅仅是在社区里, but creating the conditions for authentic friendships that will go into the future. I believe that's one of the most powerful aspects of the CSTM community.
