primary school and laid the foundation for the gymnasium (the process of “exercising the mind” in what Americans would call high school). If you have been educated in a public school, you are a beneficiary of the Lutheran reform of education. While modern universities value academic freedom – the protection of scholarly research and teaching from external pressure – it was Lutheran reformers who insisted that the primary gift of religion is freedom of conscience rather than unthinking obedience to
