DESCRIPTORS *Access to Education; *College Admission; College Students; Data Collection; Educational Demand; Educational Finance; Enrollment; Foreign Countries; Higher Education; Questionnaires; Student Costs; Student Mobility; *Study Abroad; Transfer Students IDENTIFIERS *European Community ABSTRACT This report examines, country by country, the present state of student access to higher education institutions in the Member States of the European Community (EC), as well as the elements which affect access directly and the elements which can potentially have an effect on access. Volume 1 of the report gives an overview of the methods of data collection and discusses each of the elements affecting educational access for EC exchange and transfer students as well as national students. These elements are as follows: the entry requirements and limitations; the recognition of foreign certificates, degrees, and periods of study; the application and reestration procedures; language requirements; tuition fees; student grai!ts; entry and residence regulations; health insurance; cost of living; accommodations; and academic and social guidance. Volume 2 of the report presents information detailing each country's situation relative to each of the elements affecting educational access. A section of "final remarks" from volume 1 discusses the imbalance of student flow and the financing of higher education, unequal entry requirements, language barriers, the lack of information on foreign EC students, and the problem of the non-university sector of higher education. Appendices include a checklist for governmental and academic representatives to help guide them in assessing educational access within their own organizations and countries as it applies to national, foreign EC, short-term EC, and transfer students. Data for the following countries is included: Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Spain, France, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, and the United Kingdom.

Societies, too, must retain the ability to discriminate, to reject as well as to accept, to value some things above others, and to insist 6 on the acceptance of those values by all their members. [...] If we are to build a plural society on the foundation of what unites us, we must face up to what divides. But the questions of core freedoms and primary loyalties can’t be ducked. No society, no matter how tolerant, can expect to thrive if its citizens don’t prize what their citizenship means – if, when asked what they stand for as Frenchmen, as Indians, as Britons, they cannot give clear replies.

    OMNIAS VANITAS EILEEN COHEN SUSSHOLZ PRESS KIT 25.06 > 26.11 Immensements, Eileen Cohen Süssholz ©BURP 1 CONTENT 1. INTRODUCTION 3 2. PRESS RELEASE 4 3. BIOGRAPHY 5 4. PRACTICAL INFORMATION 6 2 1. Introduction The Erasmus House Museum has a long tradition of exhibitions linked to contemporary art. As early as 1945 the museum was already holding its first temporary exhibition of Belgian sculptures in the museum’s beautiful gardens. After that, open-air sculpture exhibitions were held repeatedly until 1966 The garden became a permanent fixture of the contemporary art scene in 2000, as part of the “Brussels – European Cultural Capital” calendar of events. Dubbed a “Philosophical Garden”, it now proposes a dialogue with the humanist’s thoughts through the artwork of internationally- renowned contemporary artists. Contemporary art remains central to our institution’s policies of exhibitions, collaboration, and thought. In 2008, an exhibition of 16th- and 17th-century cabinets of curiosities called “Anatomy of Vanitas” was accompanied by pieces by Jan Fabre and Marie-Jo Lafontaine, amongst other things. Several other exhibitions of contemporary artists’ works followed, including those of José Maria Sicilia (2010), Damià Diaz (2012), Fabienne Verdier (2013), Pierre Alechinsky (2014), and Philippe Favier (2016). Today the museum is giving the ceramics of Eileen Cohen Süssholz the place of honour in an exhibition entitled Omnia Vanitas. This latest exhibition continues, in a singular and resolutely modern way, the thinking that began with the 2008 exhibition. Memento mori (“remember that you will die”), the timeless, universal theme tackled in this exhibition, reminds us straight off how fragile life is and echoes Erasmus’s life and the power of his work, despite his fragile health.

  • Dossier De Presse Carolus Festival EN
    PRESS RELEASE Brussels, 9 March 2017 Charles V Festival Brussels in Renaissance times Once again this year from May through September during the Charles V Festival, Brussels brings back the Renaissance spirit with its artistic and scientific innovations. On this occasion fifteenth century European history and heritage will be in the spotlight thanks to a full schedule of festive, cultural, and family activities planned for different locations throughout the Brussels-Capital Region. The festive and historical Charles programme is incorporated into the "European routes of Emperor Charles V" network. This historical and tourist route is recognised by the Council of Europe's European Institute of Cultural Routes. It combines the places that marked the reign of Charles V and the cities through which he travelled. This year we are commemorating the 150 th anniversary of Charles de Coster's Ulenspiegel, a masterful work of Brussels literature set in the old Netherlands at the time of Charles V and his son. Now here is a preview of the must-see events of this edition: Exhibition/route: Remigio Cantagallina, an Italian traveller in the Southern Netherlands More than 400 years ago, a Florentine artist named Remigio Cantagallina journeyed across Europe to present himself at the court of Archduke Albert and Archduchess Isabelle in Brussels. His reasons for making this trip have been the subject of meticulous research straddling history and art history. During his 1612-1613 stay in the old Southern Netherlands, he produced a number of drawings which constitute a unique record to this very day. These small drawings have been enlarged and staged in the underground ruins of the old Coudenberg Palace.
