		For some years the university was divided, not only in what concerned the places where the faculties were taught but also in terms of jurisdiction: within the monastery it belonged to the Prior, except in case of lawsuit; outside Santa Cruz, professors and students were submitted to the university Rector and privy judge (Conservador).
