15 OLDEST Universities Still Standing

[@larrytoy4235]

We visited Bologna in the early '90's for a wedding between our cousin and his new wife. The wife is from Bologna and her father was the professor of mathematics at the University of Bologna. In Europe, there is only one professor for each department, with other faculty with titles like lecturer. Bologna is also known as the food capital of Italy, think of Spaghetti Bolognese.

The 2 first and oldest universities in all of the gigantic continent of Asia are in the Philippines.

[@BalrajSingh-ky7se]

Also make a video on oldest continuously operating schools.

[@douglasstrother6584]

I'm ancient: I'm two years older than my University, UC Santa Cruz!

[@bcvan9999]

Eurocentric people should learn that the oldest universities are in Indian subcontinent - Taxila and Nalanda (real universities with professors, adminissions, lectures, exams, graduation, research, etc., since 500 BCE; students from across the known world studied there).

Key West University (the island nation Key West is a protectorate of FLORIDA) is about 2000 years old. Over the ages its official language has varied

[@jakewilson4679]

Maybe if I would have attended one of these universities, I would understand the references in this video 🤔🤣

[@olgavaldes6389]

You left out the university in Mexico which was founded in 1553.

[@Littlemissdirtbag]

What is your problem? He can't name all of them. The one in Mexico is no more special than any other.

[@christopherskipp1525]

Is it old enough to be in the top 15? I have no clue, hence the reason I ask.

[@christopherskipp1525]

Is it old enough to be in the top 15? I don't know, so just asking.

[@faithlesshound5621]

He could have included the National University of San Marcos in Lima, which is a little older than the Autonomous University in Mexico, and the University of San Tomas in Santo Domingo, which began as a Dominican studium generale before either of the others. The latter disappeared for many years, but not for as long as the University of Toulouse.

Isn't the University of Oxford older than the University of Cambridge?

[@virginiaweir-hj1rt]

Yes. This reel isn't very accurate. History Lite!

[@Urby93]

i prefer shorter videos but nice one

[@DanielF-ty3sb]

You expect too much.

[@esleyhamilton4056]

Hans, please learn how to pronounce Padua and Vicenza (not Vincenza).

[@tulliusagrippa5752]

Are there no Nobel prizes associated with your two oldest institutions?

[@StamfordBridge]

So you start by putting number one at number fifteen?

[@nobodynoonenowhere5609]

these are not old but ancient!😂😂

[@DanielF-ty3sb]

I dislike education as a whole because it's mind numbingly controlling, disrespectful, domineering, and manipulative.

[@anonUK]

Those are long words for someone who h8s eddykayshun.

[@StamfordBridge]

That’s the view of a child.

[@anonUK]

@@DanielF-ty3sb Those are long words for someone with that view.

[@faithlesshound5621]

Ivan Illich would have been proud of you.

[@dakotaj2216]

Your moms the oldest university still standing... that breezy took me to school

[@DrMJT]

A University is the tertiary educational institution as a Whole. The what you called... schools... NO. Each Subject is called, The College of.... Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Modern Languages, Information Science, Medicine, etc etc... Yanks in YankLand call tertiary education ... going to/attending a College! This is not correct. They attend a University and take subjects in each of the different Colleges in the University Campuses. In the YankLand system: Subjects: Chemistry 101, 102, 103, 201, 202, 203... etc have the course taught in the College of Chemistry at the University of... xyz. Biology: 101, 102, 103, 201, 202, 203, etc... are courss in the College of Biology at the University of ... xyz. In All other countries, secondary education is more intensive so students ONLY study/read their coursework in the College of their Degree. A person doing a degree in ancient Latin/Greek would do coursework ONLY at the College of Classical Languages at the University of.... xyz Outside of YankLand, all the ancillary coursework University students have to do in YankLand = were all done at the Secondary Education Level. A Chemistry degree in YankLand would have to do 1/4 of work in Chemistry and 3/4 of coursework in other subjects such as English, Humanities, Sciences, even a Physical Education requirement! Europe, Canada, Mexico, Australia, NZ, China, Argentina, Nigeria, etc... all follow the tertiary education is ONLY in the subject(s) of the degree.

[@DanielF-ty3sb]

This is why I dislike professors.
