SUMMARY While not a new idea, the demand that institutions of higher education do something about the problems of the cities generated a great deal of discussion during the1960Is. Unrest within the University and in the City provoked a number of programs and projects which attempted to bring the resources of the University to bear on different aspects of urbanlife, and even sometimes to make these resources available to city-dwellers. These activities stimulated further discussion and controversy. The accompanying bibliography is an attempt to bring together those contributions to this literature which might be useful for thobe who have to plan the role of the University in the City in the new context of the 1970Is. The basic concern of the literature review is to analyze what the different writers have to contribute to the self understanding of planners of institutions and systems of higher education. There is an interaction between this self understanding and planning the response of institutions of higher education to urban problems. It is almost impossible to construct a viable theory of higher education planning without a clear, consistent view of the place of higher education in our urban society and of the planner's particular institution or system in its immediate environment.At the same time, the planning of practical activities IAA= affect the urban environment requires an adequate theory, an objective self-under- standing of the urban-university interface. It is asserted, but admittedly not proven, in the review essay that planners lack this self understanding. Evidence for this assertion is found in an examination of alternative theoretical bases for planning the urban-university interface. 4. CPL Exchange Bibliography #398-399-400 The essay also starts with the assumption that the notion that the University should make a positive contribution to the resolution of urban problems implies that it must do more than it does in the course of carrying out its day-to-day operations. Just being an institution of higher education in the ordinary sense of the term, just "taking care of business" is not enough. This assumption conflicts with what is called "the conceit of the univer- sity," the notion that the historical development of the university and the contemporary institutional forms which embody that history are grounded immanent laws, which might interact with but are basically independent of the forces at work in the unfolding of the history of society at large. With regard to issues raised in the literature of the 60ts this conceit tends to cut two ways: inwardly, in calls for the University to withdraw from the chaos of the City; outwardly, in exhortations to the University to save the City because it alone stands above the forces which threaten the stability of the City. One basic conclusion of the literature review is that all the proposals looked at assume, in one way or other, that the Uni- versity is a freewheeling institution in society. While the essay does not attempt to prove that this is a false notion, evidence is presented in Section D which tends to contradict the conceit of the university. The review notes that this conceit is also antagonistic to the notion of planning the urban-university interface because it ascribes an "independent valuation" to the University, the "idea of the University."The failure of planners, to confront this (Ji 5. CPL Exchange Bibliography #398-399-400 conceit in coming to a self-understanding might explain the gap in the theory of planning higher education mentioned in Part 10 of Section A and the derivative character of descriptions of the interface planning process noted in Part 3 of Section E. The review does not explore this hypothesis, however. Another conclusion which can be made from the review of the literature is that planners should be aware of the dangers inherent in definitions of the urban-university interface which are based on concepts like ushared goalslu Iheeds," and qxroblems.0 Finally, it should be noted that this review was written before publication of the Carnegie Commission report, The Campus and the City: Maximizing Assets and Reducing Liabilities
