The government has announced that it plans to build a new university. Some people think that your community would be a good place to locate the university. Compare the advantages and disadvantages of establishing a new university in your community. Use specific details in your discussion.

The first advantage of having a new university built in my community
would be the jobs it would bring to the community. Initially, the jobs
would be those connected with the actual building of the university
structures, such as brick layers and carpenters. Once the building were
completed, the jobs would be those on the campus itself. Those would
include teachers, office workers, custodians, and librarians.

Not all of the people the university hired would already be members of
the community, so that would mean a lot of new people coming to town. Of
course, a lot of students would come too. Two advantages of new people
in town would be more taxpayers and a more diverse population. With more
people paying taxes, there would be more money for schools, libraries
and other community needs. With a more diverse population, there would
be new stores, new restaurants (to serve different tastes) and new
cultural influences.

Of course, there would also be disadvantages. More people living in the
community could mean more houses being built. There would be more
traffic on the streets, with the combination of new residents and
students who bring their cars. Plus, more people would mean more public
services would be needed. These services could include everything from
trash collection to more schools to hold all the children of the new
residents. New services might mean local taxes would have to go up, even
though there would be more taxpayers.

Another disadvantage is that the personality of our community would
change. It would go from being a place where everybody knows everybody
else to a place where a lot of people are strangers. It would become a
place with a lot of short-term residents, like the university students,
who might not care as much about the town.

Communities always change over time, though, and overall I like the
atmosphere of a “college town.” A new university would bring a lot of
challenges, but I think it would be worth it.
