My first POST

MY FIRST POST

Welcome to my first post...
I think this is way too serious for a first post, but guys please bear with me
Got this idea for my first post from a little conversation with my friend...
When I asked a friend of mine “what have you learnt in the two years of engineering life?”
He hardly mentioned about academics.
When I asked the same guy what you knew about your branch so far, he replied “not enough “
I think I know what that means because it’s the same with me, I too don’t know much about my major stream but the two years just passed away.
Our best universities have forgotten that the reason they exist is to make minds, not careers. The last thing an elite education will teach you is its own inadequacy. Elite colleges relentlessly encourage their students to flatter themselves for being there, and for what being there can do for them.
Read this wonderful article called THE DISADVANTAGES OF AN ELITE EDUCATION http://www.theamericanscholar.org/the-disadvantages-of-an-elite-education/
