We sort of touched on it, here:

Not exactly, but the respondent to my question gave a really good answer I think can probably be extrapolated, somewhat.

I was just ~~fasticious~~ facetious. If you force somebody to learn something, are they still free?

All courses have requirements. No one is going to school, signing up for a bunch of random stuff and getting a master's in a specific discipline. "Discipline."

People aren't free if they don't know how to think.

"Facetious," btw. Not picking on you, I just thought maybe you'd appreciate knowing.

you’d appreciate knowing.

I do. Thanks.
