"A dowdy education system hides its flaws inside larded layers of snobbery
and obscurantism."

I feel like more and more educators are open-minded about Wikipedia -- for
example our blog posts about Tel Aviv University teaching a course in
Wikipedia and Wikipedians-in-residence in some of Europe's oldest
universities.

Is the statement above -- fine in the writer's opinion piece -- a poke in
the eye if shared by us?
