1. A respectable means of gaining knowledge and becoming more employable through hard work, therefore aiding humanity in becoming a smarter, more advanced species.
2. Something most people waste a large portion of their life at solely to save face, being that most people are thoughtless sheep who'll do whatever it takes to be accepted by society and are uninspired in general having absolutely no personal aspirations.

1. "I'm very interested in philosophy and wish to endure a life long career in the field so that I can enjoy the thought provoking concepts that are bound to surface, hence making my existence both a more enjoyable and meaningful experience."
2. "I guess I'll study philosophy... It's taught at university so whatever. My parents want me to go and people consider it prestigious so I'll spend six years of my life and 140k doing it. That'll certainly get people to think I'm smart."

An emotional roller coaster, which will take you up, down, back up and back down, sometimes more in one day. Be prepared for heavy workloads yet lots of apparent time for socializing, which will be your ultimate demise.
I spent to much time in a lounge talking to friends so my university biblical studies paper was not finished on time.

A prison where a bunch of horny and depressed young adults are compacted into one building, you learn things you'll never use in your adult life and you take endless tests and exams for four whole years until they successfully squeeze the individuality out of your worn out body!
kid who's never gone to university: "Man I can't wait til I graduate high school and start university, the best years of my life!!!"
Senior: Hell nah that place is a living hell you don't know what you're saying.

A place where you spend four years of your life away from family and for the most part drunk with the occaisonal lecture on the subject of your choice.
university is becoming more popular as school leavers realise it is a place were they can get drunk every day of the week without worrying about what their parents will say.

Harder, more expensive, and less fun than a normal, less pompous college.
Also a great place to breed racist thoughts toward asians, arabs, and indians; all of whom are considerable population groups and all of which are annoying and easily defeat whitey in the classroom.
Finally, don't expect to get laid much at university because the only girls who go there are the awkward, ugly, or otherwise socially inept girls who have given themselves over the the book long ago.
And once you graduate, you scramble for a job against thousands of similar candidates from other universities, ultimately landing an underpaying job you don't like to pay off your $150,000 debt.
