Dr. Mashburn once again did an amazing job conveying the importance and origin of the university. I would have to say that the thing that was most outstanding to me about the information presented to us was the lack of discipline between American Universities and European Universities. To me, it seems that the Europeans take so much more pride in their education than Americans do. While in college, Europeans basically eat, sleep, attend class, and study the majority of the day. This definitely has its cons, but this goes to show that students in Europe realize what they are at college to do and that is to further their education. It is with deep sorrow that I say many young people go off to college today looking for entertainment and parties. The mindset of many young Americans who go off to college nowadays is basically, "I want to spread my wings and do what feels good without having mom and dad telling me what to do. I think it would not hurt us Americans if we stepped back and looked at how the Europeans are doing education, lest one day they will all be our bosses and we will see how we had the same opportunity as they had, yet we wasted ours.
