Sprucing Up the Neighborhood Outside the Campus Edge

Presenter(s): Robert R Hoon and Barbara A. Ryder, Washington State University; William Schwarz, Union College
Convener: Krisan Osterby-Benson, Ellerbe Becket


Many faculty and staff find it increasingly difficult to live near the campus where they are employed. This session will discuss what colleges and universities around the nation are doing to combat the decay of the neighborhoods of which they are a part. A survey of public and private institutions will be presented that describes typical approaches and creative solutions used to revitalize campus edges and present a positive image of those institutions.
This knowledge resource from SCUP is a concurrent session presented at the Society's thirty-sixth annual, international conference and Expo, SCUP–36, in Boston, MA (USA), in July of 2001.

Audiocassettes of this and other SCUP–36 sessions are available for purchase here.

Due to our concern for the privacy of members of the face-to-face audiences at SCUP-36, our digital archives of SCUP-36 presentations end at the beginning of the question and answer portion of each session. Whenever we can, we not only provide streaming audio but the slide show or visual presentation used by the presenters, as well.
