Abstract
The Westside of Atlanta is a series of vibrant, his-torical neighborhoods that sits adjacent to the Georgia Institute of Technology. Policy decisions from the local to the federal level have negatively impacted the community and created an area of high joblessness, home vacancies, and low educa-tional attainment. As a leader, financial power-house, and a good neighbor, it is recommended that Georgia Tech commit to partnering with the community to find solutions to these systemic problems. By looking at the examples proposed by other institutions of higher learning, Georgia Tech can create a solid plan of action.
