    Jun 6 2012: With RH, I am having trouble understanding your question.It would help me to know whether you are using the words "higher education" as they are normally used, to mean post-secondary, and also for you to describe what higher education would look like if it were not "in the context of a society."

    Is your claim that institutions of higher learning should be relevant to the population of students they are likely to draw in the location were these institutions are? Or are you saying that higher education should be engagement in a particular social environment rather than connected to any brick and mortar institution?

    Jun 6 2012: Thanks for this question, Emmanuel, but I'm not clear on the question. 'h.e. exists in the context of society', and 'has its proper place'. Could you please elaborate on this meaning. Thnx.
