The College of Europe has learned with great sadness about the passing away of the great European Manuel MARIN GONZALEZ, alumnus of the College of Europe (European Legal Studies, 1973-1974, Giuseppe Mazzini Promotion). One of his most lasting achievements has been the creation of the Erasmus Programme which has opened new horizons for generations of European students. He served as President of the Administrative Council of the College of Europe from 1990 until 1996.
