University Of Bologna The Breath For Survival - By Lucio Dalla

When I was still a child, I would meet groups of students dressed in their faculty colours milling around the centre of Bologna. They would be making a lot of noise about collecting some meagre offerings (almost always very little or nothing at all) for the freshmen’s party.

University Of Bologna ARCHIGINNASIO, DYNAMIC CENTER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BOLOGNA

The Archiginnasio (Greek for “first school”), the ancient seat of the University of Bologna, is quite extraordinary. I often catch a glimpse of people hesitating in front of the entrance before they venture in.

University Of Bologna The Honorary Degree: A Question of Gratitude

In 1985, the University of Bologna, of which I was the rector for 15 years between 1985 and 2000, restored the inauguration ceremony of the Academic Year, which had fallen into oblivion at the end of the 1960s, and at the same time, instigated the Honorary Degree. Among those honoured in 1987, I would especially like to recall the Degree given to Mother Teresa of Calcutta, in the dark about ...
