The Senior Citizen’s University opened on Tuesday 1 October the academic year 2013/2014, coinciding with the International Day of Older Persons, with nearly a thousand students registered. The event was chaired by the rector of the UJI, Vicent Climent, accompanied by Salvador Cabedo, academic director of the Senior Citizens’ University; José Luis Breva, president of the Board of Trustees; Jaime Navarro, president of the Valencian Agency of Evaluation and Prospective; Marisa Ribes, city councilor of Castellón de la Plana, Esther Pallardó, of the Diputación Provincial, and the coordinator of this programme, Pilar Escuder.

Lecturer Juan José Ferrer was responsible for delivering the inaugural lecture on *Constanti and Christianity. 1700 years of the Edict of Milan*. The event also delivered a tribute to older students that represent active aging:  people who never want to be out of the society in which they live, to enjoy it, to interrelate with other generations and whose lifestyle is exemplifying for us all.

Until the end of September the number of people registered is 925 students, 277 of which are registered in classes for seniors at off-campus headquarters, and 648 in Castellón, 289 in degrees and 359 in postgraduated studies. It should be noted the large number of students registered in language and technology skills, representing 46% of the total, thus reflecting the great importance and interest generated by these matters.
