Universities are intrinsically cultural institutions, as
and while they fulfil an untransferable cultural function.
From this first assumption, still handled on the surface, we
can infer two other principles. The first one is the following:
a university that wishes to get rid of its cultural responsibility
will be betraying its own identity, distorting its purpose, and
renouncing its own university status; the second is that the
cultural function of the universities, considering their unique
inscription in the territories, their extensive capillarity, and
their wish for universality, cannot be performed, without
significant loss, by any other institution. This importance
clearly contrasts with the struggle university faces in
assuming for itself this condition and with the successive
obstacles, internal and external, to its full attainment. Such
difficulties force us to revisit the orthodoxy of models for
interpreting and implementing this cultural mission and to
reinvent the relationship between culture and university,
suggesting new and promising paths.
