Daniel said he is from Holland, and in a different post said he never set foot in an English speaking country. I don’t think there is any benefit to leaving Eretz Hakodesh.

And I don’t think you’re historically accurate about your last paragraph, but even if you were there must be very good reason for the gedolim, even of the last 150 years or whatever, to oppose university. You think the university of today is as benign as the university of the 15th century in terms of what they teach?
