The human mind and the challenges of university education

Abstract

Throughout history, the search for knowledge and the development of the mind has been progressive. The philosophers did not live in a castle, living comfortably, without worries, looking at the world from the superiority of their knowledge. The great majority of them lived modestly, totally involved in the work of their time, worrying about their livelihood, family or political current affairs. All this would lead them to cultivate their minds and develop their knowledge, becoming lovers of wisdom.
