| Abstract | The word "truth" features prominently in the mission statements of the International Association of Universities, the United Nations, and other post-World War II organizations. "Truth" also appears in the official mottoes of many universities: Harvard's simple Veritus ("Truth"), National University of the South's elegant Ardua Veritatem ("Through the difficulties to the truth"), Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas' celebratory Fide Splendet et Scientia ("May it shine with truth and knowledge"), Tianjin University's practical ("seeking truth from facts"). Yet, "truth" is an elusive concept. This essay argues that a new history of the university and truth is required. A new history of truth will explore the idea from pluralistic perspectives, not the monolithic and all-powerful "Truth" of the twentieth century and those centuries before it.
