Results are reported of a NSF grant awarded to Wayne State University in 1976 for support of the project entitled "University-Community Consortium." The project included (1) identification of 16 problem areas by the city for which they wanted policy option papers from the consortium; (2) a three-part survey of city-related academic efforts as seen by analysis of Wayne State University-City of Detroit activities, University of Michigan-City of Detroit activities, and the city perspective on selected joint projects; (3) analysis of available literature concerning models of city-university collaboration; and (4) an effort at establishing an environment in which city and university people could meet each other and out of which one-to-one or large-scale projects could emerge, or simply constructive interaction could take place. This volume reports on the first three elements and the recommendations arising out of the entire project. (LBH)
