I thought capitalism had something to do with capitalists owning the means of production and alienating labor from their work. Where I live most universities are public entities.

You probably live in a social democracy, universities being public means there's some flavor of socialism (as in social democracy, not communism) in your country, with a regulated free market and capitalism.

Not to nitpick but I think both of sentences are correct. Labor can mean both the people who do work or the work itself.
