  Tensions Involving the Construction of the University Church in 1938. Next to the Main Building of the University of Debrecen stands a Protestant church which for long years in the past accommodated the periodical holdings of the university’s Main Library. However, by now much of the church’s early history has been forgotten. The study demonstrates that the university’s management supported the view, as early as the very beginning of the 1920s, that for a fundamentally Protestant institution of higher education the government authorities should provide a church of its own. This project was delayed by the world economic crisis of 1929 and the fact that the construction of the Main Building itself of the university was not completed until 1932/1933. The management of the university, the Protestant Diocese of the Trans-Tisza District and the Ministry of Religion and Public Education jointly invited tenders for the construction of the building, the winner of which was a contructor of Jewish background. This decision—reflecting the spirit of the age—elicited aversion from right-wing student organizations. Through presenting the standpoints concerning this event, the study provides a graphic description of the relevant contemporaneous attitudes.

  „Rise up and Build the Sanctuary of the Lord God, so that you may bring the Ark of the covenant of the Lord.” – The History of the Construction of the Reformed University Church in Debrecen. In this essay I try to find the answer to the question of what the main cause of the structure of the University Church was and which were the most relevant stages of the construction. After launching the university in Debrecen, the undergraduates, the professors and the local citizens established a claim to engender a place of worship where they could get an opportunity to inward edification. The negotiations about the church to be constructed began in the 1910’s, after all the quartercentenary of the Reformed College gave the handle for the church’s structure. The University Church was built in vicissitudinous ways and it came up against a lot of difficulties during the second half of the twentieth century. Consequently this fact encumbers the researching of the building’s history. However, the history of construction is trackable by the eight boxfuls of sources of the Archives of the Transtibiscan Reformed Church District.

  The Life and Work of Pál Szarvas, Professor of Chemistry. At the University of Debrecen, the Faculty of Science was founded in 1949. The management boards of the new Faculty and of the University spared no effort to bring prominent scientists as leading members of the newly organized science departments. In this manner, Pál Szarvas was also invited in 1951 to come to Debrecen to be the Head of the Department of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry. His first task here was to organize the furnishing and equipment of the student and research laboratories, to initiate classroom teaching and research work despite the rather unfavourable financial conditions. From 1952 on the number of staff members began to increase and from the mid-1960s the level of the laboratory equipment was also improving. Research work was launched in the field of analytical chemistry, where various methods were developed for the determination of some rare metals in the presence of larger amounts of other elements. From the end of the 1960s the main research field of the Department was solution chemistry, the equilibrium and kinetic studies on the formation of complexes of transition metals and lanthanides with organic ligands. Another developing field was the synthesis and study of new boron-organic compounds. The focus of research in analytical chemistry shifted to the use of emission spectrography and atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Professor Szarvas was also involved in the leadership of the Faculty and of the University. He was Dean of the Faculty (1954–58) and the Rector of the University (1963–66). His activity was highly important in the preparation of the construction of the chemistry building. Professor Szarvas, who retired in 1975, played a significant role in the organization of the teaching and research work of the Department of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, which has exerted an important impact on the current existence and successes of the Department.

  Frigyes Verzár, Professor of Physiology and Rector Magnificus of István Tisza Hungarian Royal University in Debrecen During the Academic Year of 1927/28. Frigyes Verzár was Rector of the University of Debrecen in the academic year of 1927–28. This task was particularly demanding for various reasons. First, construction work on the central building of the University was still underway, second, because in August 1927 the Research Institute of Tihany was opened, and Verzár had to direct that Institute,
  too. The actually existing conditions of commuting between Debrecen and Tihany rendered the fulfilment of this double load particularly troublesome. In spite of all the difficulties, however, the work of the Rector yielded rich results, as listed in the report of Rector held in September 1928.

  Fekete Lajos magyar királyi miniszteri erdőtanácsos, erdőakadémiai tanár az erdészeti felsőoktatás meghatározó alakja, aki a magyar tannyelvű oktatás, a magyar erdészeti szaknyelv megteremtésében elévülhetetlen eredményeket ért el. A selmecbányai M. Kir. Bányászati és Erdészeti Akadémián 1872–1891 között a Növénytan–Erdőtenyésztéstani tanszéket, 1891-től nyugdíjazásáig pedig az Erdőrendezéstani tanszéket vezette. Fontos szerepet játszott az akadémiai kampusz, az új oktatási épületek felépítésének szervezésében és a botanikus kertek fejlesztésében, berendezésében, továbbá az általa oktatott tárgykörökhöz (állattan, rovartan, növénytan, klíma- és talajtan) tartozó gyűjtemények összeállításában és fejlesztésében. A magyar erdészeti kísérletek az 1897/98-as évben indulhattak meg intézményes formában, s ez szintén Fekete Lajos nevéhez kötődik, ahogy a középfokú erdészeti képzés létrehozásának gondolata is. Ugyan már 1894-ben meghaladta a nyugdíjazás lehetséges korhatárát, de fáradhatatlan munkabírása továbbra is az akadémia kötelékében tartotta. Az akadémiai tanári kar bizalmát élvezve az 1892/93. tanévben aligazgatói, majd az 1897/98., 1898/1899. és 1899/1900. tanévekben igazgatói tisztet töltött be és ő volt az erdészeti szak vezetője is. 69 esztendős korában, 1906. október 1-jével, saját kérelmére – élete végére meggyengült látása miatt – nyugállományba helyezték, s ezzel az erdészeti akadémia legelső tanári karának utolsó szolgálatban lévő oktatója vált meg a katedrától. Ebből az alkalomból – szolgálatának elismeréséül – a miniszteri tanácsos címet is megkapta. Munkásságáért 1910-ben, hat évvel halála előtt érte a legnagyobb elismerés, a Magyar Tudományos Akadémia levelező tagjainak sorába fogadta. Nincs az erdészeti tudományoknak egyetlen olyan ága sem, amelyben tevékenysége ne hagyott volna maradandó nyomot. E rendkívül termékeny, szerteágazó és minden területen kimagasló teljesítményt produkáló életpálya ellenére az utókor meglehetősen mostohán bánt és bánik ma is Fekete Lajossal, akinek munkássága, emberi magatartása valamennyiünk előtt példaként állhat.

  FERENC ORSÓS AND ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION. he study connected to the rector’s proile aims to introduce the professor of forensic medicine in a diferent light than he is known for his political and scientiic career. It rather focuses on the unknown side of this outstanding man: a natural scientist nurtuting an unquenchable devotion to trees and forests. As the supervisor of the clinical grounds, he fought in numerous occasions with the head gardener and the Financial Department of the university for saving each tree, especially during the felling at the construction of the Main Building. He also did his best to impede the proliferation of cats on the grounds, since the cats were to blame for the dangerously decreasing number of songbirds.
