Multicampus Planning: Behind the Scenes

One of SCUP's favorite higher education writers, Melissa Ezarik, examines a wide range of issues faced by member campuses of the National Association of Branch Campus Administrators (NABCA):

When a branch campus doesn’t have a full range of facilities, it can seem an undesirable location. “There’s always the issue of keeping people tied back to the main campus,” says [former SCUP president] Daniel Paulien, president of Paulien & Associates in Denver, which works with colleges and universities on facilities planning, including the use of space. Yet sometimes faculty and staff reluctant to be based on the other campus admit later to liking where they’re at."
