Talk:Higher Education

A University is the name of a big school for grown up kids. Sort of like a college, but bigger. Universities come in many different kinds, the majority of which are hotbeds of godless liberalism. Not all universities are pure evil, though. The Greatest President Ever attended a university, as did Our Glorious Stephen, and somehow they both managed to survive any corruption by book-learning or critical thought. This article is meant to help you understand the good and bad things about different kinds of universities and university students.
