THE UNIVERSITY MUST BE DEFENDED! SAFE SPACES, CAMPUS POLICING, AND UNIVERSITY-DRIVEN GENTRIFICATION.

The author discusses the relationship between universities' roles in gentrification of urban areas and the place of campus security. He mentions the actions of the University of Virginia in developing Charlottesville, Virginia and Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, the role of gentrification in providing more security for the universities' campuses, and the sense of safety established by geography alone.
