The first universities were seminaries, both centers of liberal arts and vocational schools. The liberal arts are intended for small classes so that instructors can ensure that each student is not just learning random facts, but learning how to think. The liberal arts education provides different methods of thinking which are more abstract and theoretical in nature, which is why the liberal arts are so important. University students have historically been known for their radicalism and progressivism which, like all things, are good in moderation. The University should be for “Any person, any study,” but that does not mean every person should go.
