The University of Osuna ((スペイン語:Universidad de Osuna)), officially the ''Colegio-Universidad de la Purísima Concepción en Osuna'' ("College-University of the Immaculate Conception in Osuna") was a university in Osuna, Kingdom of Seville, Spain from 1548 until 1824.〔(DECRETO 346/2004, de 18 de mayo, por el que se declara bien de interés cultural, con la categoría de monumento, el Colegio-Universidad de la Purísima Concepción en Osuna (Sevilla) ). BOE, number 181, 2004-07-28〕〔Francisco Reyes, (El Colegio-Universidad Osuna ), ''Aparejadores'' (published by Colegio Oficial de Aparejadores y Arquitectos Técnicos de Sevilla), Number 55 ((TOC )), May 1999. Accessed online 2010-02-07.〕 Spain granted the university building the status of a monument in 2004.〔 Since 1995, the building has again been a site for university-level studies.〔 ==The old university== The University of Osuna was founded based on a bull of Pope Paul III, and it was a peer university to the likes of the universities of Alcalá de Henares, Bologna, or Salamanca.〔〔 That bull was granted due to the efforts of Don Juan Téllez Girón, Fourth Count of Ureña and First Duke of Osuna,〔 who also gave it an endowment sufficient to its needs.〔Alfonso Pozo Ruiz, (El leitmotiv y patrimonio fundacional de la Universidad de Osuna ). Accessed online 2010-02-07.〕 Authorization for the university came directly from the pope without any specific involvement of the Spanish monarchy.〔Alfonso Pozo Ruiz, (La antigua Universidad de Osuna (Sevilla) ). Accessed online 2010-02-07.〕 The University of Osuna had a system of scholarships, a residential hall for its students, and even its own burial ground.〔 There were fifteen major professorial chairs in the university and eight lesser chairs in the associated college; these were grouped into faculties of Medicine, Law, Canon Law, Theology,〔 and Arts.〔Alfonso Pozo Ruiz, (La antigua Universidad de Osuna (Sevilla) ). Accessed online 2010-02-07. Pozo Ruiz gives Law and Canon Law as a single department, and adds Arts, which Reyes omits.〕 Of these, Theology was the most attended.〔 Medical instruction was entirely theoretical: there was no operating theater.〔 Philip II later added a chair in Mathematics.〔 The first rector was Francisco Maldonado; the last was Diego Ramirez. Dominicans, Augustinians, Franciscans, and Carmelites all taught at the university.〔 While one could get an excellent education at the old University of Osuna, one could also drift through, attend classes in a desultory manner, and add an academic degree to his name, as long as the fees were paid (supplemented by ''"propinas"'', tips, if one's academic performance were truly poor).〔 Osuna was not unique among Spanish universities of its time in this respect, but it was often singled out as an example. Cervantes, whose grandfather served as corregidor of Osuna, mentions the university three times in his writings, never favorably. Writing a century and a half later, Diego de Torres Villarroel, a professor at the University of Salamanca, described the granting of degrees by the University of Osuna, as well as at the universities of Sigüenza and Irache, as amounting to "civil simony".〔 Partly for these reasons, the University of Osuna narrowly escaped closure by Charles III in 1771 and was one of eleven universities closed in the reform of 1807. Its prerogatives were granted to the University of Seville. The university did not quite close down at this time, though its operations do seem to have been suspended when the building was used as a French headquarters during the Peninsular War. After the war, the university continued precariously until its definitive closure in 1824.〔〔Alfonso Pozo Ruiz, (La extinción de la Universidad de Osuna ).
