Abstract

CommUniverCity contributes to a growing movement across the United States that recognizes that, by the very nature of their stability and long term presence, the future of urban institutions of higher education is intimately tied to the fate of their surrounding communities and governmental milieu (Bringle, Games and Malloy, 1999; Campus Compact, 1999; Community-Campus Partnerships for Health, 2006; Enos and Morton, 2003; Kellogg Commission on the Future of State and Land-Grant Universities, 1999; Moxley, 2004; Torres, 2000; Saltmarsh, Hartley and Clayton, 2009). American universities are adopting John Dewey’s view that ‘democracy must begin at home, and its home is the neighborly community’ (Dewey, 1927/1954, p. 213).KeywordsSocial CapitalCivic EngagementService LearningBuilding PartnershipService Learning ProjectThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
