So why go to university?1. You are investing in your future
2. Learning is a magnificent and lifelong thing
3. It’s about you and your society: the world needs reflective and critical thinkers
4. The world needs people who can apply knowledge
5. Besides, you will probably earn more and be able to buy more Freddos, Big Macs and a nice car if you have been to university

Our teachers…

I won’t necessarily give them the answer they
want… personally I think their experience should be
one that is challenging, puts them in a situation where they encounter
uncertainty, the messiness of the real world..

So what’s different about university?
• William Perry• Harvard professor• The typical student
learning journey

William Perry’s module evaluations…
“This course has changed my whole outlook on life. Superbly taught!”
“This course is falsely taught and dishonest. You have cheated me of my tuition”
![Page 14: Eastleigh College](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020103/58a2cea91a28ab692e8b495f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This has been the most sloppy, disorganised course I’ve ever taken.
Of course I’ve made some improvement, but this has been due entirely to my own efforts!”
