Dealing with "Induced Migration" in University Impact Studies.
Felsenstein, Daniel
Research in Higher Education, v36 n4 p457-72 Aug 1995
This article argues that a factor often overestimated in studies of a university's impact on its community is the effect of inmigration of students and faculty. A case study is presented of the short-term migration impact of Northwestern University on Evanston, Illinois. The effect of local consumption patterns of migrants is also discussed. (MSE)
