Famous quotes containing the words university student, university, student and/or centre:
“[University students] hated the hypocrisy of adult society, the rigidity of its political institutions, the impersonality of its bureaucracies. They sought to create a society that places human values before materialistic ones, that has a little less head and a little more heart, that is dominated by self-interest and loves its neighbor more. And they were persuaded that group protest of a militant nature would advance those goals.”
—Muriel Beadle (b. 1915)

—William Booth (1829–1912)

to this college on the hill above Harlem

—Daniel Day Lewis (b. 1957)
