Read the passage and answer the following question
The spontaneous emergence of universities was intimately associated with the new learning that had been translated into Latin throughout the course of the twelfth century. Indeed the university was the institutional means by which Western Europe would organize, absorb, and expand the great volume of new knowledge; the instrument by which it would mold and disseminate a common intellectual heritage for generations to come. While the universities of Paris and Oxford became renowned as centers of philosophy and science and Bologna for its schools of law and medicine, all three . . . shaped the university into a form that has persisted to this day.

The author implies that

Law and medicine were not appreciated in Paris and Oxford
