Grek, Sotiria – European Educational Research Journal, 2011
In Scotland, access to the "policy community" is relatively easy and relations are very relaxed, but this may be interpreted as a different means of managing and co-opting researchers.

Rhetoric and Composition as Community Engagement: Toward Mending Community and Town and Gown Divides
Accardi, Steven – Composition Studies, 2017
Penn State Hazleton sits at the very edge of town, on the top of a large hill, literally, as far removed from Hazleton as it possibly can be.
