Abstract | It is both an honor and fitting that the "Journal of Community Psychology" presents to the discipline a series of papers included within a symposium entitled "Seymour Sarason in Memorial: Prospects for Community and Social Change" at the Biennial Conference on Community Research and Action on June 18th, 2011, in Chicago Illinois. These papers represent a personal and professional paean to Seymour's memory, because he was in many ways the father of community psychology, and respected and beloved by his many students and colleagues. Without his contributions and his leadership in combination with that of his other contemporaries, the Journal would likely not have begun, and reflecting the continuing importance of his seminal concept, "the psychological sense of community," in all likelihood the number of submissions each year would be substantially fewer. Seymour Sarason helped shape the field primarily through his writing, which captured and described phenomena in education and psychology principally by exploring what he observed and being explicit about how these observations filtered through a lens of individual experience. In this article, the authors share a few personal stories of their own about Seymour as a way of illustrating something more about his personality and influence on them and, by extension, the kinds of work that the authors highlight and publish in the "Journal of Community Psychology."
