Trust Issues
Many communities mistrust universities because of the way they’ve been treated in the past.
Every college and university serves to some extent as an economic “anchor” in its respective community. They create jobs, support local businesses, partner with government. This report highlights best practices for building community relationships and becoming a trusted anchor in helping revitalize local neighborhoods. Recommendations for implementation and successful town-gown profiles are included.
The economic contributions of higher education happen on a daily basis, whether planned or not. It’s better if they are coordinated and reflective of “best practices” instead of disconnected and ineffectual.
We hope you'll find value in this report. We’d love to get a little information from you, which we'll use to notify you about relevant new resources.
