The student very often writes down something while he hears; and it is only at these rare moments that he hangs to the umbilical cord of his alma mater.

m alight! If I go further into the question and look at your professors, I again find the same independence in a greater and even more charming degree: never was there a time so full of the most sublime independent folk, never was slavery more detested, the slavery of education and culture included. "Permit me, however, to measure this independence of yours by the standard of this culture, and to consider your university as an educational institution and nothing else. If a foreigner desires to know something of the methods of our universities, he asks first of all with emphasis: 'How is the student connected with the university?' We answer: 'By the ear, as a hearer.' The foreigner is astonished. 'Only by the ear?' he repeats. 'Only by the ear,' we again reply. The student hears. When he speaks, when he sees, when he is in the company of his companions when he takes up some branch of art: in short, when he _lives_ he is independent, _i.e._ not dependent upon the educational institution. AME LET PEOPLE BE CAREFUL LEST YOU SET THEM ALIGHT IF I GO FURTHER INTO THE QUESTION AND LOOK AT YOUR PROFESSORS I AGAIN FIND THE SAME INDEPENDENCE IN A GREATER AND EVEN MORE CHARMING DEGREE NEVER WAS THERE A TIME SO FULL OF THE MOST SUBLIME INDEPENDENT FOLK NEVER WAS SLAVERY MORE DETESTED THE SLAVERY OF EDUCATION AND CULTURE INCLUDED PERMIT ME HOWEVER TO MEASURE THIS INDEPENDENCE OF YOURS BY THE STANDARD OF THIS CULTURE AND TO CONSIDER YOUR UNIVERSITY AS AN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION AND NOTHING ELSE IF A FOREIGNER DESIRES TO KNOW SOMETHING OF THE METHODS OF OUR UNIVERSITIES HE ASKS FIRST OF ALL WITH EMPHASIS HOW IS THE STUDENT CONNECTED WITH THE UNIVERSITY WE ANSWER BY THE EAR AS A HEARER THE FOREIGNER IS ASTONISHED ONLY BY THE EAR HE REPEATS ONLY BY THE EAR AGAIN WE REPLY THE STUDENT HEARS WHEN HE SPEAKS WHEN HE SEES WHEN HE IS IN THE COMPANY OF HIS COMPANIONS WHEN HE TAKES UP SOME BRANCH OF ART IN SHORT WHEN HE LIVES HE IS INDEPENDENT I E NOT DEPENDENT UPON THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION
