Abstract The Bologna Follow Up Seminar, which took place in Athens in February 2003, continued discussions that had emerged from the Prague Communique´ of May 2001 to the effect that higher education is a public good. This article focuses on the public good aspect of higher education and calls for broadened access and no tuition fees, for the social role of higher education should be viewed as a value in itself.
