can i remind you that that of a very simular name to sebastis group?

no no no, see this is an association while sebastis is a group. There's a difference!

Hi,
Would you mind telling me the difference between Group, Association, Circle, Committee and population?
Do you think which one is more appropriate for some students gathering together to study and debate around a specific scientific subject and working on researches on some fields?
(If there's a better word for this issue please add.)

A Group can be large but generally when talking about a group of people it is inferred as being fairly small (but with exceptions). I would refer to your students described above as the "XYZ Group". I regard this as the most appropriate word. They all have a common interest in XYZ and convene and converse with each other collectively.


An Association is a formal group who have a specific interest in mind. It is usually a large group that has a formal organization structure, elected officers and specific policies and interests.
