This study investigates the research question of which typology of the town-gown relationship articulated by Gavazzi et al. (2014) best describes the University of West Georgia (UWG) and the City of Carrollton, Georgia. This research was shaped by two theoretical models, stakeholder theory and social capital theory. This research used a two-stage research design, with interviews of the university president and city manager in stage one followed by surveys of faculty/staff, students, university administrators, city administrators, and nonprofit leaders in stage two. Key findings are that top level administrators view the relationship more favorable than faculty, staff, and students. The university president and the city manager agree on almost all aspects of the relationship. Significant differences occurred between local government leaders, students, and faulty/staff regarding the overall relationship. Collaboration showed significant difference between local government administrators, students, and university administrators. When evaluating the relationship over time, significant differences were evident between local government administrators, students, faculty/staff, and university administrators. Students and university administrators had significant differences regarding the value of UWG’s contribution. All role groups had significant differences regarding engagement activities. In addition, all role groups had statistical differences regarding acknowledgement and support, except local nonprofit leaders. An analysis of a scaled measure of the overall relationship revealed differences for local government administrators and faculty/staff. Regression analysis highlighted the importance of UWG’s acknowledgment of community contributions along with years in role. The relationship between UWG and Carrollton is best described as a traditional typology. This study recommends that regional comprehensive universities should formalize points of connection with the community and recognize community contributions more formally as well.
