  University of Paris - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The historic University of Paris (French: Université de Paris) first appeared in the second half of the 12th century, but was in 1970 reorganized as 13 autonomous universities (University of Paris I–XIII).
The university is often referred to as the Sorbonne or La Sorbonne after the collegiate institution (Collège de Sorbonne) founded about 1257 by Robert de Sorbon, but the university as such is older and was never completely centered on the Sorbonne.
The historical campus, located in the Quartier Latin, in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, featuring mural paintings by Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, was split for use between several of the universities of Paris and the Rector's services.

 Quality Advocates, "Best Practices in Implementing Strategic Plans"
Paris believes involving people during plan development is one of the most important steps in implementation since staff, faculty, and students better understand the reasons for it and unintended consequences may be avoided.
Paris replied that the strategic plan is a contract between leadership in the unit and those persons implementing the plan: leadership commits to providing resources, while the unit commits to carrying them out.
Paris went on to say that it is important to find a common directive for the collective group, but in a university setting, a paradox exists between faculty autonomy and the organization.

But Paris the Heiress seems to be the latest in a long list of unremarkable celebrities whose names have invaded chunks of our brain space and we've no idea what they're doing there.
Paris Hilton, says Thompson, "is the beneficiary of wide-open spaces that have been made possible by a multichannel universe," where you can find coverage of Paris any time you want to.

 1.24.2005 - UC Berkeley, French scientists find missing link between the whale and its closest relative, the hippo
The conclusion by University of California, Berkeley, post-doctoral fellow Jean-Renaud Boisserie and his French colleagues finally puts to rest the long-standing notion that the hippo is actually related to the pig or to its close relative, the South American peccary.
This proposal places whales squarely within the large group of cloven-hoofed mammals (even-toed ungulates) known collectively as the Artiodactyla – the group that includes cows, pigs, sheep, antelopes, camels, giraffes and most of the large land animals.
Brunet is associated with the Laboratoire de Géobiologie, Biochronologie et Paléontologie Humaine at the Université de Poitiers and with the Collège de France in Paris.
