Abstract

The chapter provides a description of the complexity and depth of college and community relationships resulting in a better understanding of the college president's role in providing support, direction, and leadership in community and college relations. In specific, the chapter focuses on the political relationships between campuses and city councils and local politicians, civic regulatory considerations that impact the college, joint fiscal partnerships, physical and facility partnerships, and curricular opportunities for collaboration between institutions and their communities. The chapter concludes with four strategies that are particularly important for college presidents to consider in working with their host communities, all of which stress the need for open and clear communications.
