It is easy to agree that the scope of education is larger than job training and that education makes people free. However, it is difficult cross ideologies to agree specifically what education should be about and what means to be free. That is why different ideologies aim to expect education to fit their vision. In this essay Edgar, Hugo and Alex holding different interests and ideologies have a Socratic style discussion on how to reform higher education. While their three visions are fairly compatible with each other, the interviewing process reveals strong disagreements, inconsistencies and blind spots in all three of them.
