The Provincial Government awarded the Aquila di San Venceslao (an eagle-shaped prize recalling the shape and tradition of Trentino and of its autonomy) to Professor Fulvio Zuelli, former full professor of Institutions of Public Law, former Rector of the University of Trento and, until a few months ago, also President of the University Guild.
The President of the Autonomous Province of Trento, Ugo Rossi said while awarding the prize: “We thank you for your contribution to the local community and for young people who attended the university. This is a small but significant symbol of our gratefulness: the eagle for which you have worked long and constantly”.
“Together with the University of Trento", added the Councillor for University and Research, Sara Ferrari, "We decided to thank you for the quality of your work and your relational skills which you have demonstrated throughout the years. Thanks to you the Opera Universitaria became a fundamental partner in the education scenario of Trentino”.
The Rector, Daria de Pretis participated in the ceremony and expressed her satisfaction for the prize awarded to Professor Zuelli by the Provincial Government.
Professor Zuelli said that he was “moved and proud” for the prize. “I spent many years in Trentino and I fully devoted my time to students: they are the true university”.
