Para tanto, a autora realizou pesquisa histórica sobre a política institucional nacional acerca do ensino superior público desde a criação da primeira universidade no Brasil, da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, a partir da criação da Universidade do Recife e da concepção do Campus Joaquim Amazonas. Levantou ainda a gestão institucional da Universidade em relação ao Campus Joaquim Amazonas e procurou compreender sua condição de integridade física-espacial para estabelecer relações existente entre esses fatores. A pesquisa está fundamentada na teoria da conservação urbana integrada, calcada nos princípios internacionais de conservação e nos conceitos atrelados ã gestão do patrimônio. A metodologia da pesquisa se estruturou de forma a investigar por vias de levantamento histórico de fontes documentais a organização institucional da UFPE e de seu patrimônio, incluindo a conformação de sua gestão e o diagnóstico da condição de integridade de seu substrato físico e espacial, enquanto fator determinante para a expressão valorativa do bem que necessita de salvaguarda. Com a investigação, foi possível determinar a relação de influência que a gestão institucional do Campus Joaquim Amazonas exerceu, ao longo dos anos, sobre seu estado de conservação atual, que culminou na degradação de sua condição de integridade. / This dissertation aims to analise the link between the institutional management of physical and spatial heritage of the Federal University of Pernambuco and its conservation, based on the institution's current state of integrity. To examine so, the author performed historical research into the evolution through the years of the national institutional policy concerning public higher education since the founding of the first Brazillian university, as well as the institutional development of the Federal University of Pernambuco, since the creation of the University of Recife and the conception of the Joaquim Amazonas campus. The author also highlighted the institutional management of the Federal University of Pernambuco's historical configuration in relation to the Joaquim Amazonas campus and sought to comprehend its condition of physical and spatial integrity to establish a connection between these items, under the strengh of all the raised information. The reasearch is based on the integrated urban conservation theory, supported by the international principles of conservation and on the concepts that regard the administration of heritage. The research methodology was structured in a way to investigate the institutional configuration of UFPE through historical survey of documentary sources and its patrimony, including the formation of the university's management, and the diagnosis of the university's physical infrastructure as a determining factor to the expression of valuation of the good that needs to be conserved. With the investigation, it was possible to determine the relation of influence that the administration of the Joaquim Amazonas campus has had throughout the years over its state of integrity, which culminated in the campus's infrastructure degradation.

The formation of the knowledge in the university space is intrinsically related to all the set of elements in it: from the physical structure, to the knowledge and the people. The well understanding of what it means the physical structure of the campus will contribute strongly for this formation. The structures that compose the university campus and its own evolution passed through historical process analyses which are instruments of the process comprehension and relevance from its contribution in the society formation. This research analyzes campi from its characteristics applied in the monachal structures yet scholastic, the formation of the first universities and colleges in the Occidental Europe. Then, in the research s development, it slowly evaluates the campi of University of Virginia made by Jefferson, the Illinois Institute of Technology made by Mies van der Rohe and finally the Architecture s College of Porto in Porto University made by Alvaro Siza. The understanding of these structures will be certainty important in the project of new campi to be produced in XXI century. / O Campus universitário é um espaço que tem grande importância no desenvolvimento da sociedade. A formação do conhecimento no espaço universitário está intrinsecamente relacionada com todo o conjunto de elementos presentes nele: da estrutura física, ao conhecimento e as pessoas. O bom entendimento do que significa a estrutura física do campus contribuirá fortemente para esta formação. A análise do processo histórico pelo qual passam as estruturas espaciais que geram o campus universitário e a própria evolução do campus como tal são instrumentos de compreensão do processo e da relevância de sua contribuição na formação da sociedade. Este trabalho analisa os campi desde suas características presentes nas estruturas espaciais monacais ainda escolásticas, a formação das primeiras universidades e colleges na Europa Ocidental. Na seqüência avalia detidamente os campi da Universidade de Virginia de Jefferson, o Instituto Illinois de Tecnologia de Mies van der Rohe e finalmente a Faculdade de Arquitetura do Porto na Universidade do Porto de Álvaro Siza. A compreensão destas estruturas espaciais com certeza será importante no projeto dos novos campi a serem produzidos no século XXI.

A Universidade é um centro de produção de conhecimento e reflete os contextos social, cultural, histórico e econômico que compõem a complexa tessitura de decisões políticas e embates entre interesses públicos, privados e a sociedade. Torna-se o motor da transformação urbana, porque requalifica o tecido urbano em que está estrategicamente inserida. Seu projeto urbanístico arquitetônico tem a responsabilidade de traduzir as forças, conflitos, desafios e sintetizá-los como contribuição ao espaço construído. A exemplo disto, esta dissertação trata do processo de implantação da Universidade Federal do ABC - UFABC, iniciada a partir de 2004, na região do Grande ABC paulista, concebida com uma missão ideológica bastante definida de tornar-se um equipamento urbano estratégico para as cidades do ABC. Trata-se de uma experiência de política pública que objetivou, em âmbito federal, a democratização, a expansão e a melhoria da qualidade do ensino superior por meio da implantação de um novo projeto pedagógico, voltado para o século XXI e, em âmbito regional e municipal, representou um marco arquitetônico e urbanístico que se propôs a promover a inclusão social, a requalificação e a intensificação da vida e do espaço urbanos. É certo que a UFABC se caracteriza como uma intervenção bastante renovadora para modelos de campi universitários, porém a realidade revela que muitas possibilidades são convertidas em ideologias irrealizadas e nem sempre a relação entre universidade e cidade é simbiótica. Ao revisitar seu processo de implantação e contextualizá-lo, esta pesquisa propõe-se a uma interpretação crítica das ações realizadas, visando a algumas contribuições para ampliar o tema abordado: espaços universitários contemporâneos. / As a center for the production of knowledge, the University mirrors the social, cultural, historical and economic contexts that characterize the complex web of political choices and conflicts among public and private entities, and society at large. The university is the engine of urban transformation because it re-qualifies the urban fabric in which it is strategically located. Its urbanistic and architectural project ought to synthesize the dynamics of power, conflict, and challenges into the built environment. This dissertation is a case study for this process, examining the creation of Universidade Federal do ABC (Federal University of the ABC region) - UFABC - in 2004. UFABC was conceived with the well-defined ideological mission of becoming a strategic urban equipment for the cities that comprise the grande ABC (designation for the conurbated cities of Santo André, São Bernardo, and São Caetano, which are adjecent to the metropolitan area of São Paulo). This experiment in federal public policy was aimed at democratizing, expanding, and improving the quality of higher education through a new pedagogical project specifically designed for the 21st Century. At the regional and municipal levels it is an architectural and urbanistic milestone that aims to promote social inclusion and re-qualify and intensify urban space and life. While UFABC strove to renew the prevailing university campus models, the end result is that many possibilities remain unfulfilled ideological projects, and the relationship between the university and the city is not always symbiotic. By reviewing the implementation process and its context, this research provides a critique through the lens of theoretical frameworks concerned with contemporary architecture and urbanism.

The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the residential college system to determine if there was any association between campus crime and the residential house system. The specific problem of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the residential college system in mitigating campus violence. The intent of this study was to analyze the statistical relationship between crime reports from colleges and universities where on-campus housing was structured into residential colleges or house systems and crime reports from comparable colleges and universities without the residential design. Data collection consisted of a Web-based nationwide survey conducted annually by the U.S. Department of Education. Data collected for this study were for 2006. The 2 groups of institutions that made up the population for this study were 27 colleges that incorporated some variation of the residential college system or house system matched with 27 comparable institutions without the residential system. The results indicated there were significant differences between institutions with residential college systems and those without such systems for the on-campus aggravated assault offenses and the on campus residence halls aggravated assault offenses. Findings showed fewer aggravated assaults in the group of institutions with residential college systems. A 3rd statistically significant difference was found in the category of arrests for the on-campus residence halls liquor law violations, with the group of nonresidential institutions showing fewer arrests than those without the residential college housing design.

Community college students are often excluded from persistence studies due to the unique characteristics of community colleges and its students. Recent studies have heavily relied on retention models that do not adequately account for the role individual and campus culture plays in students’ persistence decisions. Using Museus’ (2014) Culturally Engaging Campus Environment (CECE) model, this cross-sectional, correlational study examined the impact of campus environment perceptions and sense of belonging on the persistence decisions of students at a rural community college in the southeastern part of the U.S. Correlation analyses were conducted to investigate the relationships between two independent variables, campus environment perceptions and sense of belonging, and one dependent variable, students’ persistence decisions. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine if differences in campus environment perceptions and sense of belonging existed between racial and gender identity groups. Lastly, a t-test was conducted to examine differences between residential and commuter students. Utilizing the CECE Survey for Community Colleges (Museus et al., 2017), a total of 234 responses were analyzed. The results revealed that students are more likely to persist when they have a positive perception of the campus environment. It also revealed that students were more likely to persist when they possessed a strong sense of belonging. Upon examining differences of campus environment perceptions, the results showed that gender identity influenced campus environment perceptions and race influenced sense of belonging among students. There was insufficient evidence to establish differences of campus environment perceptions and sense of belonging among residential and commuter students. Limitations regarding this study included its generalizability due to the low number of survey responses and the physical aspect of campus environment and campus culture. Recommendations for policymakers and practitioners include consideration for community memberships, increase campus support for underrepresented groups, and cultural competency for training. Recommendations for future research include the use of different theoretical frameworks to understand student persistence, continued studies involving community colleges, inclusive campus environment perceptions and sense of belonging studies, and qualitative studies on campus environment perceptions and sense of belong of community college students.
