eal model (system) of education existing in the European space so far, a classic
idea of university by K. Jaspers (1883–1969) introducing quite some time
before the Bologna reform will be also emphasized in the presentation. In Basel
Jaspers has proclaimed the idea of “concentric and stratified university” where
pure science (philosophy, mathematics, physics and classical philology) form a
core, whereas wreaths and strata were closely filling up by the applied (mostly
technical) and other sciences. Our assessments of the Bologna reform were derived
from the analyses of spectra just of the two faculties of the University of
Zagreb: FER (Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing) and PBF (Faculty
of Food Technology and Biotechnology). Therefore they bring quantitative
properties partial and preliminary because referring to the one (basic) component:
physics. The choice is due to dual reasons. The first is pure scientific:
physics crucially contributes to the epistemic core of contemporary knowledge.
Physics with mathematics and philosophy of science (philosophical thinking)
together occupy a central place of the system of sciences. By synergy of them
new discoveries are born, by influencing knowledge of nature (universe) as well
as material and spiritual culture of the mankind. The second reason arising up
of the fact that author of the paper has been continuously acting since 1975 in
the field of physics at the FER, and at the PBF for the non-interrupted period of
1991–2012 where he has set-up modern courses of physics as well as the Bologna
model of physics in 2005. The structure and dynamics of the exams of the
courses of general physics will be shortly described then selected histograms
with attached Bologna’s parameters indicating level of passing (success) for
both faculties, respectively. Final assessments will be (preliminary) reported in
the form of comparison of Bologna with the old model of education, by simple
algebraic technique: qualities of better (+) or worse (–) assign up to one or other
option. Observed anomalies and few other strange (exotic) solutions found in
the current walk of Bologna reform will be critically discussed.

CAMPUS NOVEL AND THE IDEA OF HUMIVERSITY
The idea of university has had a long tradition in human history. University
teachers, among them physicists, philosophers, men of letters and the like,
educate some future physicists, philosophers or men or letters. Their intellec-
