Attending university is useful for making friends?
That's not what I would classify as useful. You can get friend from many many places. Attending university for friends is not a valid reason to attend imo.

Likewise, if one's opinion is that the point of university is to get an education, you could just as equally counter with "well, you can get an education from many places". And frankly, it's much easier to recreate the educational aspects of a university than the social aspects. I was a hopeless teenager coasting apathetically through life, and attending university got me to break out of my mold and learn how to socialize, set life goals, and be a functioning human being. I wouldn't trade that time for anything.
