Campus Planning

by Richard P. Dober

Campus Planning

This book thoroughly reviews the fundamentals of campus planning. It is divided into three sections: "Prospectus," "The Campus and Its Parts"—such as instructional facilities, housing, and parking and circulation—and "Campus Plans"—such as expanding the campus, building a new campus, and renovating. It is rich in concepts and specific solutions, with hundreds of photographs and drawings. It should be on the bookshelf of any campus planner. This classic was first printed in 1963 and is the work of Richard P. Dober, a charter member of SCUP, who influenced campuses worldwide as a planner and consultant to more than 350 educational institutions.
