The socialization is a difficult and long term process. New conditions of life, a new university community, new objectives and new rights, freedom and multicultural society, democracy and a new status of being a colleague of the professor, a real activity and a collective work in making decisions are important in our life. Young people develop and this activity will help them in the future”. |
