In modern times universities have been their refuge. I worry they won't be such a good refuge in the future, though, because universities are being attacked from without by more effective competitors and from within by political ideology.
Universities have become quite effective at ostracizing, silencing, and purging idea-hunters.
But the point is that we have many universities, and they are not uniformly controlled. Copernicus, for example, was an idea hunter (sat on his model for 30 years; fear of controversy). His ideas were ridiculed at most universities in West Europe. But not at one, which /1
