For anyone interested in university expansion who can find some free time on a Thursday in October, this could be very interesting. http://bostonpreservation.org/calendar_symposium_101807.html
For example, "A moderated panel discussion will investigate ways in which campuses affect, and are affected by, their contexts and communities; their mutual responsibilities in fostering urban vitality and maintaining the continuity of distinctive heritage, and as their stabilizing potential in neighborhoods and housing forces."
But the keynote speaker is from Columbia - an institution that is in the process of eviscerating Manhattanville, NY. Who paid his fee?
