Now why can't HIVE be the same thing? We have some very clever people here, and many willing to exchange ideas, essays, profound-concepts and notions in text, pictures, and however they choose to express themselves.
Does this university have assessments and certification or is it more along the lines of an online repository of videos and the like, - or more like skillshare / udemy / etc model?
The best education you can have, in my opinion is basic research methodologies, and the ability to read and think critically. That was the best thing I took away from my conventional university degree.
Having said that, it was in Visual Art (and my thesis was about how Death is Represented in art - I really must turn the chapters into video essays... someday - its on my list) - the thing I learned MOST was how to read.
I typically tell people that I don't know how read, but what I am trying to say to them when I say that is I cannot read the author's true intent, only hallucinate it in my mind.
Sorry, rambling again :)
