University Establishment
Likewise, a university may define its date of establishment by:
- The date at which the papers of its incorporation was approved
- The date on which it first opened for the teaching of classes
- If the university derived from a previously-established institution, either the reorganization or the establishment of the parent institution.
Yet still more variations on the definition of the date on which a university was established are possible as considered reasonable by each university's governing body or executive officers.

Famous quotes containing the word university:
“The information links are like nerves that pervade and help to animate the human organism. The sensors and monitors are analogous to the human senses that put us in touch with the world. Data bases correspond to memory; the information processors perform the function of human reasoning and comprehension. Once the postmodern infrastructure is reasonably integrated, it will greatly exceed human intelligence in reach, acuity, capacity, and precision.”
—Albert Borgman, U.S. educator, author. Crossing the Postmodern Divide, ch. 4, University of Chicago Press (1992)
