Education: An Abysmal Situation
Posted by nqsh May 30, 2005 02:23 pm
Whats with this arabic issue? I just dont get it why so many people here have objections only on learning arabic ? If a community wants to study a particular language for what so ever reasons, why dont the rest just learn to respect that.
You shoudnt have problems regarding opinions of people from other faiths, if your a true secular. Are you?

noori you said:
[1. All political parties should be forced to say goodbye to their student wings and all political activities inside the educational institutions should be EFFECTIVELY banned. The students should be told that serious actions whould be taken against them if they indulge in political activities. ]
To tell you something really good, this particular issue, which had been plaguing youth specially in metropolitan cities, has been resolved to some extent, for the last six to seven years. At least I can say for my university, which is one of the major unis in Pakistan. In the past , there had been a very strong hold of Jamiat here too, like many other universities in the rest of the country. Students dint had regular classes or exams, so instead of completing a regular course in 4 years, it took students five, even seven years at times, to gradute college. But things have literally turned the other way round, since the millitary govt. At present, not only the political activities of students have been effectively banned, with panelties, but also our sessions are being regulated very efficiently, and there are even some which are gonna complete before time.

And the rest of your suggestions, well your quite right. But the thing is they never ask ``us`` the students , the youth, when formulating thier never-revised education policies. After all who knows best , than the ones effected by their cramped systems. thats a dilema. But we shouldnt stop raising our voices.
