Oh, come on. I give you that the Jesuits usually aren't afraid of going against the dogmatic grain, even in the 17th century when they were the only ones being against the witch madness, but they aren't the only ones running schools. There's always the dogmatic clamp in what they teach. A good secular college would be the better choice than any religious institution.
I know you won't like the comparison, but it's valid. Soviet universities also provided knowledge. But they weren't exactly neutral in what they did or didn't teach. And how they taught it.
