ДРУШТВЕНО-КУЛТУРНО ДЈЕЛАЊЕ УНИВЕРЗИТЕТА
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ACTIVITIES OF THE UNIVERSITY

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the meaning of university and its value (achievement of value) in a society, so, according to that, as with a specific aspect of culture. Namely, it is a fact that historically achieved values of mankind comprise the achievements in the area of scientific research as well as those in the field of acquiring the knowledge. That is why today, as well as ever, every organized society emphasizes the importance and meaning of educational system, especially of high education, as a special social and cultural value. The more university or faculty successfully fulfills its basic role – researching and teaching activities, the better is the way it realizes its cultural mission. Every democratically open society must be aware of the truth that an autonomous acting of a university does more credit to its governing (political and industrial) structures than in the case when those structures impose themselves as tutors to the university, directing its activities. And every realization of autonomy of university is one of the basic determinants of the realization of the cultural mission of any university.
