The Siting of a New University: The Case of the University of Texas of the Permian Basin.
Cardozier, V. R.
International Journal of Institutional Management in Higher Education, v12 n1 p64-73 1988
The struggle between two highly competitive towns over the location of a new university is chronicled.

Lasting effects on the university are discussed. (Author/MSE)
