The book explores the challenges faced by urban colleges and universities in the late twentieth century as they grappled with the surrounding issues of poverty, crime, and urban decay. It highlights the contrasting responses of these institutions: some chose to isolate themselves from the community, while others sought to foster better relationships with local residents, facing difficulties in maintaining these efforts. The narrative delves into the complexities of higher education's role within struggling urban environments.
