I've long thought that Canada is EII. Our national image is of "the nice, polite guy". It also makes sense that our current Conservative government is LxE. Furthermore, our clashes with American culture generally centre around our dislike of aggressive American Se.
Quaero Veritas.
Yeah, I see this place as Fi, Ne and Si valuing. The focus on politeness and accommodating people/not offending others, the deep preservation of natural surroundings and outdoorsy nature and the fact that there is little placement on power and status. Not to mention that, culturally, Canadians are known to poke fun at themselves in a rather infantile manner, the deep need for serious patriotism is not looked highly upon compared to countries like the US

Fail. American Universities consistently rank as the highest quality in the world.I am convinced america doesn't have a niche in society for scholars though, its not a very emphasised archtype in american culture imho.

It would be fail, but thats not what I am talking about... having a notable ethos in a culture for scholar archtypes is different than having a high ranking university system or whatever.
One is about the prevalance of a cultural archtype, the other is about some Te data and statistical bullshit.
Consider what exactly are the criterion for that test? then does that neccesarily have anything to do with scholar archtypes?
like consider times higher education 08
Times Higher Education - Strong measures
are there criteria
all that is great but what relationship does this data have to do with something like cultural ethos and archtypes?
An example of an archtype in cultural ethos would be say the cowboy in texas. While there aren't many actual cowboys in texas, the macho-masculine character concept of the cowboy in texas tends to paint a certain cultural ethos for the society.
Your approaching that sentence all from the wrong perspective in my honest opinion; the american educational system is focused on getting degrees to get jobs, not to pursue the life of a scholar. It would be hard to convince me different, as I have seen this all play out first hand through talking about people viewpoints and outlooks on school, and complying a mental portrait of the motivations of a large network of people.
In the realm of Te data and statistics, consider the number of people who graduate and go into a professional field, versus the number of people who graduate and go onto being professors say, and then the number of professors who focus on more scholarly pursuits versus say teaching or industrial pursuits. From inspection of this data, it would be obvious that the vast majority of people who pass through the doors of universities do so as a way to build professional careers and not to pursuit the path of the scholar.
