Tihamér Gyarmathy: Spheres and Squares
He survived forced labour, the concentration camp in Bor, the "strained march". At the end of 1944 he fled and walked to the already free Szeged and enrolled the university. In 1948 he was awarded for his work with the title ‘the best university student of Hungary" and was named an honorary doctor by the university.
