Long may higher education be around. It was around in the times of Plato and Aristotle. In central India the first universities flourished thousands of years ago. Then in Bologna, Paris, Oxford and Cambridge in the 11th century. They were all but destroyed by inquisitions but bounced back in time for the renaissance. They've been sacked by Vandals and burned down by Popes.

Higher education will be here in 2124 and in 2224 and so long as human beings seek knowledge and wish to transcend our parochial epoch.

This shitty little period of sad human history, where they've disgraced themselves so far as become nothing but certificate issuers for their industrial masters will fade away like leaving little or no trace in history.
