Abstract

The problems of education that concerned Ortega in 1930 are essentially those which contemporary thinkers are trying to resolve. Ortega proposed separation of teaching and research, curtailment of the curriculum, demands for a high level of mastery, and a compulsory core of essential subjects. Because of the role of culture in life, the university must be remodelled if science and rationality are to endure. This solution faces great obstacles, but there may be no alternative.
