Comparing man to an uncultivated tree, this metaphor shows the value and worth of education in a persons life. I think it may be a bit of an over exaggeration that man's nature without education is vicious and perverse and education transforms them to have qualities of virtue and social worth, but the imagery of transformation is to be appreciated.

I wonder if there was a more diverse board, how the decisions of the placement and construction of UVA would differ?
