2 Pierre-Théodore Verhaegen Pierre-Théodore Verhaegen Born in Brussels on 5 September 1796 Belonged to high bourgeoisie and aristocracy in the first half of the 19th century Worked as a lawyer in Brussels, also active member of: the freemasons the liberal party the Belgian parliament Conceived the idea of a university: completely independent from the church and the state devoted to the principle of free inquiry The dream came true with the establishment of the ULB in 1834 Every year on 20 November, the students and the academic authorities commemorate the founder of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel and the ULB, Pierre-Théodore Verhaegen In popular parlance, the day is better known as 'St-Vé' Overview University Library slide 3 The principle of free inquiry The principle of free inquiry is based on a text by the French mathematician and natural philosopher Henri Poincaré ( ), in which he says that: Thinking must never submit itself, neither to a dogma, nor to a party, nor to a passion, nor to an interest, nor to a preconceived idea, nor to anything whatsoever, except to the facts themselves, because for it to submit to anything else would be the end of its existence. Overview University Library slide 4 2
3 Seal of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel Legend scientia vincere tenebras = science will triumph over darkness The beggar's wallet and the joined hands on the orange-white-blue escutcheon (or shield) in the emblem (the colours of the Prince of Orange) refer to the struggle of the Protestant Gueux and the Prince of Orange against the Spanish rule and the Inquisition in the 16th Century The combination of the legend, wallet and joined hands symbolises the free and unfettered spirit of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel Overview University Library slide 5 The new house style of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel Starting from 2004 the Vrije Universiteit Brussel uses a new house style In official documents, we do not use the abbreviation VUB We also avoid to use the translation Free University Brussels The company logo and the (now simplified) seal are: Overview University Library slide 6 3
