In addition to my professor's jocular comment, he went on to say that a university targets "the whole man". It is more than a trade school. A well rounded individual cultivates a better self and then makes a better society. Perhaps a fully educated person will even cast his vote thoughtfully...

It was a good lecture, much like the one in Second Hand Lions.

“A well rounded individual cultivates a better self and then makes a better society.”

Has the NEA come up with a “complete” definition of this? Maybe this is why they can’t discuss the drop out rate and that the whole sports department attending their own classes is off limits. That was how they came up with a jury to judge O.J. as the jury was made up of 12 former professors at USC. They never saw him.
