The urban university campus is studied through a comprehensive view of student patterns. Following an analysis of the life patterns of the commuting student with regard to schedule, environment, and adequacy of educational facilities, recommendations are presented for a number of campus facilities to house activities considered beneficial to the students. Consideration is given to a set of relationships which facilitate flow and arrival, service and encounter for commuting students. Also presented is a series of assumptions illustrating the implications on total campus space requirements. Diagrammatic illustrations supplement the discussions. (FS)
