This is by Marshall McLuhan and goes like this, "the reason universities are so full of knowledge is students come with so much and they leave with so little." Here is a pretty good article where I stumbled upon the quote. www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/11550

Excellent. And true. mndapa1 , who is a good friend has a few stories to tell on this subject. He tells of a story, which I happen to know as true, that he was the only Freshman physics major at NDSU...and it came with consequences and some laughs.
So tell us the story mndapa1, so everybody knows your first hand experience of this.

Another time. But my experience in college was a wake up experience to what Universities are trying to teach....and I am sure it is much worse now.
They dont want to teach independent thinking, and myself being charismatic, made it much worse.
