[University and creativity].
The University is a natural environment for the development of the creative aspects of man. Professional training and the solution of specific problems, though important, are secondary objectives. For those working in the University, freedom must be turned into a way of living; thus, creativity becomes possible. The University belongs to the nation and not to governments. This is the origin of the autonomous nature of the University and more than a privilege, it must be viewed as a basic requirement for creativity. The University is basically democratic since creativity is not related to race, religion, or politics. Finally, it is hierarchical since credit must be given to talent, training and experience.
