What if I told you that half the stuff I learn COULD NOT be learned
another way? Example - this morning, a baroque dancer demonstrated
french dance forms. CHances are had I not been studying music in a
university, I would never have seen that in North America. The same
goes for most of my classes - sure, there's some stuff that I could
learn from books, and I do. But there's also the experience of being
with other people learning the same material. There's a lot more to it
than just a 'paper' which frankly, I don't care much about either. But
there's a lot to be learned in a good environment that can't be found
easily outside of it.
