I'm not the person you're addressing, but - yes, you're wrong. (And an asshole to boot, but that's another issue.)

"Getting a job" has absolutely nothing to do with "serving others," except maybe in the slavery sense of "serving," depending on your politics. The point is that universities are supposed to be dedicated to knowledge and understanding for their own sakes. It's not about "looking good," and I have absolutely no idea where you got that from. It's about learning, in whatever way best expands your understanding of the world, yourself, and the absract.

That's exactly the spirit in which I was meaning it and there's not much more to add really.

You clearly have no idea what I'm talking about. Thanks for the compliments.
