Let's start with a working assertion that the activities characteristic of higher education, aka, academic life, specifically universities and colleges, take place on campuses. A campus provides the location where people meet and interact in all the many ways that we describe as indicating that academic work is taking place.
In making this assertion, we should recognize that the campus is not a particular kind of building housing classrooms, laboratories, or libraries. Instead, the campus provides a location for particular kinds of human interaction; it is a medium by means of which the work of people engaged in higher education takes place.
<hr>
A campus is a place, a location in the material world, where the activities of an institution of higher education take place.
