TIL that the original, as in first and oldest, western university, namely Bologna, was student-run.
According to Wikipedia, students “hired and paid for the teachers [and] ran everything—a fact that often put teachers under great pressure and disadvantage".
Not sure about the right balance between students and faculty running the show, but completely student-run would certainly today’s ⋅administrator-run⋅ shit show, so let's just go back to the roots and take it from there?
