Eight years with Frans van Vught at the wheel
New educational programs, major/minor, mergers of faculties, toppling of research, management crisis, reorganization and increased cooperation between the TUs. Frans van Vught's term - eight years as rector magnificus, four of which while serving as chairman of the Executive Board - was turbulent. The rector, who will say his farewells this Friday at the Founder's Day celebration, says it has marked him indelibly, but he looks back on it with feelings of pride. `I gave everything I had to offer.'
