The chemist who made the university indispensable for science.
Liebig, like Lavoisier, was largely self-taught, drawing inspiration from everything from soap making to pharmaceutical laboratories.
Neutrality or partisanship: a dilemma for academic institutions.
Here and there, some groups go too far, but I don't see much difference compared to what happened in past decades.
