UNIVERSITY: A PLACE WHERE OPTIMISM IS BURRIED


UNIVERSITY: A PLACE WHERE OPTIMISM IS BURRIED

M
any get in the universities believing that they will come with knowledge that will make them fight in life very cheaply.  Based on my own research, I have found that many universities are similar to job seeking seminars and not intended to teach and prepare the students to become what they can be in life to bring changes. Very few discover their course of life and many end up becoming job seekers. If you don’t believe this, prepare two seminars; one based on Job Seeking Techniques plus calling their prospective employers and the other let it be based on entrepreneurship plus calling some well known entrepreneurs in the region. Observe the response- many will attend Job Seeking Techniques seminar and few will attend entrepreneurship seminar.  I have never been motivated by JST seminars and I suggest that it should not be given a priority. Deployment is better than employment. I also suggest that if you are employed grow in the manner that you will soon create employment and do not be an employee forever. Getting the job should not be the end of growth. If you are not studying to be employment, you are increasing your knowledge and understanding about various issue, situations and activities so that you can do them better. Do not try to fit in the needs of someone (employer) but the needs of the world. I’m challenging university graduates that, they should help their nations to create employment opportunities and stop becoming the burden to their government.
