This, and similar differences, seem to be completely forgotten about when people bring up the European model for college. It gets tiring pointing it out because the normal reaction is to ignore it entirely. Rarely is useful discussion produced on what purpose a college should serve and how the European model is in contradiction to some of the underlying philosophy advocating for it (specifically around the idea of who should college be for).
