Abstract
Although other universities have established partnerships with inner-city communities in many forms of service learning, few institutions of higher learning have aggressively attempted to revitalize the most severely impoverished sectors of their cities with large outlays of time, resources, and personnel. The Campus Affiliates Program, a collaborative venture among Tulane and Xavier universities, the Housing Authority of New Orleans, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the city of New Orleans, and the residents of the C. J. Peete Housing Development, offers a case study of one such attempt. Major foci are on the process that created the collaborative; the organizing principles that mobilized the university and neighborhood communities; the barriers and obstacles encountered; and the impact of the partnership on the campus faculty, students, staff, and institutions.
