  University \U`ni*ver"si*ty\, n.; pl. Universities. [OE.
     universite, L. universitas all together, the whole, the
     universe, a number of persons associated into one body, a
     society, corporation, fr. universus all together, universal:
     cf. F. universit['e]. See Universe.]
     1. The universe; the whole. [Obs.] --Dr. H. More.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. An association, society, guild, or corporation, esp. one
        capable of having and acquiring property. [Obs.]
        [1913 Webster]
  
              The universities, or corporate bodies, at Rome were
              very numerous. There were corporations of bakers,
              farmers of the revenue, scribes, and others. --Eng.
                                                    Cyc.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     3. An institution organized and incorporated for the purpose
        of imparting instruction, examining students, and
        otherwise promoting education in the higher branches of
        literature, science, art, etc., empowered to confer
        degrees in the several arts and faculties, as in theology,
        law, medicine, music, etc. A university may exist without
        having any college connected with it, or it may consist of
        but one college, or it may comprise an assemblage of
        colleges established in any place, with professors for
        instructing students in the sciences and other branches of
        learning. In modern usage, a university is expected to
        have both an undergraduate division, granting bachelor's
        degrees, and a graduate division, granting master's or
        doctoral degrees, but there are some exceptions. In
        addition, a modern university typically also supports
        research by its faculty
        [1913 Webster]
  
              The present universities of Europe were, originally,
              the greater part of them, ecclesiastical
              corporations, instituted for the education of
              churchmen . . . What was taught in the greater part
              of those universities was suitable to the end of
              their institutions, either theology or something
              that was merely preparatory to theology. --A. Smith.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: From the Roman words universitas, collegium, corpus,
           are derived the terms university, college, and
           corporation, of modern languages; and though these
           words have obtained modified significations in modern
           times, so as to be indifferently applicable to the same
           things, they all agree in retaining the fundamental
           signification of the terms, whatever may have been
           added to them. There is now no university, college, or
           corporation, which is not a juristical person in the
           sense above explained [see def. 2, above]; wherever
           these words are applied to any association of persons
           not stamped with this mark, it is an abuse of terms.
           --Eng. Cyc.
