I have read the column of my friend nono in INQ7.net this morning. This is tragic: a lot of people actually think that a college degree will bring them out of poverty however low the quality of their college education is. In a country where companies require a college degree or at least units of college work in order to serve food in food chains like Jollibee or McDonalds, you would feel the frustration penetrating your bones. (btw, I even heard a rumor before that some janitors are required of college degree -- Oh great, perhaps they need to know the physics of cleaning toilets? how absurd!).
But then, it is good that these people still hope. The schools that jesuits send these scholars to may not be the best there is. However, the prospect of earning a degree is still worth it. The alternative available to them is even worse.
Meanwhile, some corrupt officials of the government are sneaking huge amount of money abroad -- not from their pockets but others'. Apparently, they are educated in some of the best schools. In fact, one of these schools emphasize honesty and integrity.
Education hoax you say?
