Original Note:
This is misleading. It was founded as a mosque by Fatima al-Fihri in 857–859. However, it only became a University in 1963. Therefore, the notion that this is the "First University" is false/misleading as there were many Universities prior to 1963. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_al-Qarawiyyin#:~:text=In%201963%2C%20after%20Moroccan%20independence,a%20former%20French%20Army%20barracks
