Tripoli University

A fake university becomes a real one. If they can do it, so can we. Let's replace all the fake education with real education.

From the Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/sep/21/libyas-main-university-prepares-new-term

The best excerpt:

"For the first time in 42 years the university has the chance to be a normal academic institution. "Until now we had the form of a university but not the function," says Sami Khaskusha, a political scientist. "We fed young people garbage. [Muammar] Gaddafi just used this place to boost his cult of personality and bolster the regime. It did nothing for Libyan society."
