In most cities in the United States and Canada, the local college or university is the largest and most important employer in town. The role of the university and its relationship to the community has been a highly debated topic among educators, administrators and local business leaders. Through an in-depth study of four schools, David Maurrasse offers a passionate appeal for community partnerships. Beyond the Campus goes further than a simple explanation of the problems at hand; it offers a roadmap for both universities and local businesses to work together for the good of their communities. Through interviews and first-hand accounts, Maurrasse shows success stories of schools and communities that are forming positive partnerships in the community.
