In the final stretch of his eight-year termQuim Salvi, the parish priest of the University of Girona (UdG), receives ARA in the beautiful Les Àligues building—a former military barracks in the Barri Vell (Old Quarter) that exemplifies the university's transformation of the historic center—eager to take stock but also with a long-term vision. Currently, the UdG has four campuses in the city: the Barri Vell campus, the city center campus, the Montilivi campus, and the Research and Innovation Park in La Creueta. And unlike other universities, it is finding that more and more students are choosing it as their first option: a direct consequence of the cost of living in Barcelona and the difficulties students face in finding affordable housing. The next parish priest's challenge will be the creation of the new Health Campus on the border between Girona and Salt, where the new Trueta stadium is to be built. The elections will be held on November 27, and the new parish priest is expected to take up his post around Christmas time.
