In the Shadow of the Ivory Tower: How Universities Are Plundering Our Cities by author Davarian Bald

Author Davarian Baldwin will be presenting his research and discussing his new book, In the Shadow of the Ivory Tower: How Universities Are Plundering Our Cities.

"Across America, universities have become big businesses—and our cities their company towns. But there is a cost to those who live in their shadow. In the Shadow of the Ivory Tower is a wake-up call to the reality that higher education is no longer the public good it was once thought to be. But as Baldwin shows, there is an alternative vision for urban life, one that necessitates a more equitable relationship between our cities and our universities."
