The structures and landscapes of colleges both radiate and absorb the values of the cultures in which they were created. As economic and political forces exert pressure on administrators and as our understanding of higher education shifts, these spaces can transform dramatically. Focusing on the utopian visions and dystopian realities of American campus life, this collection of new essays examines the university architecture from the perspective of faculty and students. Topics include disability, sustainability, first-year writing, underrepresented groups on campus, online education, adjunct labor, and how funding works to physically shape colleges and university.
