Wrapping up… Is there a set model that works for everyone? Is it always easy? Does everyone always get their way? Can Colleges/Universities live without the local FD? Can communities live without the College/University?

Colleges/Universities must together! If you haven’t started building the relationship - get started today. It is a matter of when… Not if you will be called upon to work together in a time of crisis….
