Znaczenie nadawane Uniwersytetowi Gdańskiemu w „Dzienniku Akademickim” w latach 1971–1974

The aim of the article is to define the meanings that were given to the University of Gdańsk by the authors published in the “Academic Journal” in the years 1971–1974. The authors of the articles were probably as- sociated with the Association of Polish Students, a youth organization acting as a student self-government. There was also a hypothesis, according to which, the meaning given to the UG was devoid of an ideological tone.To achieve the objectives, discourse analysis was used, based on the corpus of texts from the “Academic Journal“, which referred to the UG.Ultimately, several areas were identified on which the discourse on the UG focuses. These include, among others: bureaucracy, student culture, and marine research. The hypothesis was also confirmed with the assumption that the absence of political values is compensated by economic values.
