Founding rector of the “VASILE GOLDIȘ” Western University of Arad, and later President of the university… this is how the people of Arad know Professor Aurel Ardelean, but he is certainly much more than that. Professor Ardelean was a real “Man of the Citadel”, he was a responsible citizen, a model for his fellow citizens, sometimes understood by them, sometimes maybe not…

If today Arad is recognized as a city of the Great Union – THE POLITICAL CAPITAL OF THE GREAT UNION – it is due to Professor Ardelean, who together with other intellectuals of Arad founded the University of Arad who took the name of VASILE GOLDIS – the Arad politician who in Alba Iulia proclaims the GREAT UNION.

Destiny made the Transylvanian professor pass to the holy ones in the Centenary Year of the Great Union, without seeing the Monument of the Great Union installed in Arad, a monument that Vasile Goldiș also dreamed of…

Professor Aurel Ardelean will always be present here, with us, and the “VASILE GOLDIȘ” Western University, founded on his initiative, will bear witness to HIS presence…

He was a vocation teacher, a persevering scientist, he got involved in politics considering that politicians need to be aware of the real values of society… you wonder how he managed to do so many things… he was in the office very early in the morning and left from the office or from the university / faculty / research center, very late at night. He did not spare himself and did not spare those around him. It was very difficult to adapt to the pace of life of Professor Aurel Ardelean.

Let’s not forget the family. He was a Man of the family, trying to coagulate around him the members of the family… he was the “soul” of the FAMILY, this being the one who gave him the power to take from the beginning – every day – every initiative, idea, project…
