  abstract =     "The traditional university often has a world class
                 reputation for teaching and research. Equally often it
                 is centrally sited in established cities through which
                 the winds of economic change have blown viciously,
                 leaving ivory towers surrounded by neighbourhoods of
                 underprivileged communities. Within these communities,
                 junior and high schools do their best to battle against
                 under-motivation and lack of expectation in the literal
                 shadow of elaborately resourced institutions populated
                 by secure and highly educated staff, teaching students
                 from more affluent backgrounds who look forward on
                 graduation to similar levels of security in employment.
                 For modest investment, we demonstrate that it is
                 possible to bridge the gap between these two
                 communities. An exercise which commenced as a tightly
                 funded service to a small number of inner-city schools
                 has grown to serve a larger number. Of more interest,
                 it has demonstrated the potential to be of direct
                 benefit to a range of students of the university in a
                 way that could not otherwise be provided.",
