And most decent schools do exactly this.
And this is exactly my point. Rand may not be the most original, the best, or even a likable author, but she has certainly been one of the most influential authors of the second half of he 20th century, and her influence is not confined only to the US or the UK.

(Which Nozick never really did, not to that extent
)
