Tribes

There are a few different tribes I can within Atchison.

1.) Benedictine- This is the most apparent one to me because we are pretty a self-sufficient little town within the town and the College generally keeps to itself. The students sometimes will go into town, but students are temporary figures in the school and aren't permanent fixtures in the town.

2.) Business Owners- The home-town businesses seem to hold together fairly well, which leads me to think they could be classified as a tribe. They work together to try to pull in customers and often have the same viewpoints on what the direction the town should go in. I would also place MGP within this group, despite their larger size because they still are a local business with great interest in how the town keeps.

3.) The Townspeople - These are the regular people who compose the town of Atchison. The blue-collar people who work in the plant, the schools, the College, and raise their kids to live in Atchison. This is the main body component of the town in my opinion.
