Arthur J. Lidsky to present at Society for College and University Planning (SCUP), at the International Conference - "Discover! Global Perspectives - Local Strategies" held in Montreal, PQ, Canada, July 19-23, 2008
"Transformative Initiatives: Positive Approaches to Working with your community" On July 22, 2008
Time: 2:15 pm

One of the first recorded conflicts between a college and a community was 1209 at Oxford College. Another was the three-day battle on St. Scholastica Day in 1357, also at Oxford. No wonder that the campus was designed to separate the townsfolk from the students.

This session will explore transformative town/gown initiatives at more than 10 different institutions: public, private, college and university. We will also explore the impact of Town/Gown Associations being created in many cities and states.
