Singing the praises of campus and Canaries
Article Abstract:
An examination of the social and economic impact of the University of East Anglia on the city of Norwich, United Kingdom. While it is acknowledged that the university is an important contributor to Norwich's economy and that its students add to the cultural diversity of the city, local residents have complained about the university, claiming that rowdy students cause trouble and that local traffic problems are a result of student cars. The university has countered, saying that local youths have deliberately provoked fights with students.
