Abstract	Despite the fact that universities and their various communities have much to offer and much to gain from partnering, the number of submissions for the Carnegie elective Community Engagement Classification suggests that partnerships are not ubiquitous in higher education. This is not surprising. Creating a productive, healthy, and sustainable partnership is hard work and time-consuming. Universities and communities are often unaware of the potential of partnerships or lack the knowledge or commitment necessary for their development. Partnerships are less efficient than working alone. But productive partnerships exemplify the notion that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. That is, campus and community can accomplish more together than either could do alone. This chapter defines partnership, provides an overview of the partnership-related data reported to Carnegie, and offers recommendations for universities, their partners in the community, and the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching to strengthen and advance such partnerships for the future.
