                                                                    What are universities for? from The School of life

     The video that School of Life present and wee will talk about is "What are universities for?". The questions: "The universities teach us how to live?, Who we are?, Where our society should be headed?, and more are some of the concerns of the youth today. It have being establish some priorities for students to learn philosophy, history, sciences and other courses. Those are important, but what about life?We also should be studying what we like,  what is the meaning of life, and how to live well, how to live happy. The School of life present the "Universities of the future"that consist in this kind of replacement. How should we be dealing with our problems, or how to reduce the anxiety, or how to be more compassionate are themes and areas that (maybe in a future) universities could fantasizes. Therefore as School of Life present the traditional way of teaching in the Universities since 19th century and their idea of what universities should be, makes us reflect about what universities really for and where is the happiness in our life.
