What Are Universities For?

 

                The universities started showing up in the mid XIX century the same time where there was a great decrease in the power of religion. At the time many had questions about life and it's meaning, about themselves, they searched for wisdom. Not getting the answers they wanted, people sought for them in universities.

 

                Universities where built to teach people how to make a living and give them "keys" to attain the job they want. People often hope that in the university they will finally get important answers to questions like: who thay are, where our society should be headed, how can they be happier and more fulfilled, certain things needed to truly have the life they want, not only the job they want. The video states that if you were to go to any university in the world and start making questions like: "where should I go with my life", "what is my purpose", "how can we change the horrible and wrong things with the world" You wont get an answer, they don't promote that type of thinking.  Thats why in What are universities for?the speaker proposes that future universities should change departments like philosophy for a department of relationships, death, anxiety management, and self-knowledge to reflect the actual priorities of our life so we can live happily, with a full potential, to maybe get to answer those important questions we've always had, and to truly understand ourselves and not only how to make money.

Hi everybody,

the presentation will discuss in detail the first 6 pages, focusing on the techniques used. I will not present the passages of the protocol in detail, for obvious issues of time and because will be quite boring listening the details of the reagents and trouble shooting.

see you tomorrow

Barbara

He buscado y rebuscado el prontuario de Cálculo I en la página del Departamento de Matemáticas de la facultad de Ciencias Naturales donde he accedido a la página de cursos de Cálculo I, lo cual sólo contiene información vieja; del semestre anterior.  He verificado las descripciones de cursos del departamento, y al seleccionar MATE 3151, y su prontuario respectivo, aparece información del prontuario de MATE 3018.

¿Dónde está nuestro prontuario?

El profesor indicó que está disponible en línea.  
¿Será que todos lo han encontrado?  Vamos.  Tírenme la soga.

¡Auxilio!
