Rethinking University-Community Policy Connections will publish
works by scholars, practitioners, and ‘prac-ademics’ across a range of
countries to explore substantive policy or management issues in the bring-
ing together of higher education institutions and community-based orga-
nizations, nongovernmental organizations, governments, and businesses.
Such partnerships afford unique opportunities to transform practice,
develop innovation, incubate entrepreneurship, strengthen communities,
and transform lives. Yet such potential is often not realized due to bureau-
cratic, cultural, or legal barriers erected between higher education institu-
tions and the wider community. The global experience is common, though
the precise mechanisms that prevent university-community collaboration
or that enable successful and sustainable partnership vary within and across
countries. Books in the series will facilitate dialogue across country experi-
ences, help identify cross-cutting best practices, and to enhance the theory
of university-community relations.

Acknowledgements
This project would not have been possible were it not for the willingness
of dozens of university professors, staff, students, and community partners
to sit for interviews, serve as tour guide on campuses, and organise gener-
ally very welcoming receptions as we visited each campus. We thank them,
though they are mostly unnamed in the pages of this monograph. We also
acknowledge the patience and support of Jemima Warren and Oliver
Foster at Palgrave Macmillan.

CHAPTER 1
Early in the presidency of Barack Obama, he was criticised for his notion
that the United States was not uniquely exceptional in the world. In a
media interview, he stated: “I believe in American exceptionalism, just as
I suspect that the Brits believe in British exceptionalism and the Greeks
believe in Greek exceptionalism … Now, the fact that I am very proud of
my country and I think that we’ve got a whole lot to offer the world does
not lessen my interest in recognizing the value and wonderful qualities of
other countries, or recognizing that we’re not always going to be right”
(Farley 2015).
Though Obama continued through his presidency to extol various
characteristics of American society and the American economy, he never
veered from this underlying point. The United States is exceptional in the
things in which its people take pride, but is unexceptional in its belief of
exceptionality. With the same logic, we suggest what should be an obvious
truth: every society on earth has its own values, ideals of the good society,
and strategies through rule of law, rule of dictator, or somewhere between
to implement the good society. For any one society represented through
the nation-state to claim exceptionality is to acknowledge difference; to
judge those who are different based on one’s own set of socialised norms,
values, and practices, with the idea of not exceptionality but superiority, is
ego-centric.

CHAPTER 2
These words, written in the late 1980s, are still relevant in 2019.
Though, the idea of promoting freedom and taking stands to challenge
the national mood is one that is perhaps easier to vocalise and a bit more
complex in practice. It is also fraught with political landmines. For exam-
ple, a higher education policy proposal in the State of Florida (United
States) would mandate an annual survey of professors, administrators, and
students to assess openness to competing perspectives and truth claims.
This raises the question about what is legitimate other speech, and what
is, within the context of a liberal education, on the surface and deep within
anathema to the ideals of liberal education itself. Is a far-right, white
nationalist who preaches hate and discrimination a legitimate other voice
that should have a welcoming environment on a university campus?
Should university campus buildings be open for rent and utilisation by any
person or group in society, without explicit endorsement or support from
an organised student organisation or faculty member sponsor? In later
chapters, we will explore this issue more with regard to how universities
have managed such situations and the notion that, if students are well

PREFACE.
This Index has been compiled from the Old and New
Testament and Apocrypha, the alterations in the
Revised Version being noted in their places; from the
‘Memoirs and Name Lists of the Survey of Western
Palestine;’ from that portion which is completed (as
yet unpublished) of the ‘Memoirs and Name Lists of
the Survey of Eastern Palestine;’ from Smith’s ‘Bible
Dictionary;’ from the list drawn up by Sir George
Grove for Clarke’s ‘Bible Atlas’ (S.P.C.K.); and from
Conder’s ‘Handbook to the Bible’ and ‘Primer of Bible
Geography,’ with numerous references to the
‘Quarterly Statements.’ The identifications adopted
are those that will be found on the new maps (to be
issued about the end of this year) of the Old and New
Testament, covering both sides of the Jordan, and
authorized by Colonel Sir Charles Wilson and Major
Conder, R.E.
The Index to the Old Testament Sites includes
upwards of 1,150 names of places in the Holy Land,
Mesopotamia, Edom, the Desert of Sinai, and Egypt;
being, it is believed, all those that are mentioned in
the Old Testament and the Apocrypha.
The Index to the New Testament Sites contains
162 names, with references to Josephus (Whiston’s),
in addition to those in the New Testament. Of these
names 144 are known, 10 uncertain, and 8 not
identified.
The identifications suggested by Major Conder as
due to the Survey are marked with a star.
There are still 290 places mentioned in the Old
Testament, in the East of Jordan, the Desert and
Western Palestine, which remain to be identified.
Reference is made in every case to the number of
the sheet of the large and small maps on which the
modern name will be found. Under the heading
‘Remarks,’ etc., will be found fuller particulars of the
proposed site from the ‘Memoirs of Western
Palestine.’
