Summary/Abstract: The author discusses the theme of the mission of the university as it can be reconstructed against the background of the teaching of John Paul II. The ego-narrative combines three testimonies, regarding, respectively, the conference on "Human Labor" of 1981, which coincided with the promulgation of the Encyclical Labaorem Exercens, the Jubilee of University Professors held in the Vatican in the Jubilee Year 2000, and the Higher Education for United Europe Congress of 2004, held in Lublin, which John Paul II addressed with a special message.
