But current economic conditions and shrinking endowments have forced these schools to find new ways to deliver and fund projects: * Public institutions are looking to Private/Public partnerships as alternatives to state funding; * Private institutions are exploring off-balance-sheet development, land leases, future buybacks and other options as ways to reduce cost and risk; * Independent project management and real-estate strategists are being engaged to help understand this more risky design construction and operation process. Gain insight into this complex process from a panel of leading academic facility and real estate professionals, and learn how the real estate community can assist and respond this next wave of institutional growth.
