The article reflects on the historical and ongoing challenges faced by universities, particularly their role in society and education. It references Schopenhauer’s warnings about the dangers of aligning university goals with political agendas and discusses modern issues such as the impact of artificial intelligence on traditional evaluation systems and structural problems within higher education institutions. The piece also highlights the changing perception of universities—from centers of ideological indoctrination to vocational training grounds—and notes the growing emphasis on certification through academic degrees. In Mexico, there are over 4,400 institutions offering undergraduate programs, including the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), which saw an increase in student enrollment. The article mentions the online format of UNAM’s entrance exam and compares it to historical perspectives on university admissions.
