But... it doesn't rhyme.

'Yea' is pronounced 'yay'. WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW !?



I'm totally for Universities, though I think that they have become too widespread.
Everyone seems to have a degree of some sort nowadays, which means that having a degree isn't something special like it was 20 years ago.

If you have a diploma of excellence, that's special. But if everyone starts getting the same diploma, it's no longer special and everyone is back at square one. The government wanting everyone to have a degree has lowered its worth, and people are now pushed to doing Master's, PhD's or Doctorates to stand out in this competitive market.

University is the best place to learn independence. For most people, it's the first time that they live away from home, so they learn how to become autonomous and self-sufficient (with the odd cheque from mum and dad, of course). I loved my first year of university -- I met amazing people, learnt how to control my spending, discovered a few things, etc.

Word of advice for those going to university. Balance work and play from the very beginning. The first few weeks often dictate how your year's going to be. Start off by only partying ? You'll likely spend the year having fun and making excuses for your work. Spend your days in your room, studying, and you'll likely spend the year not being very social. Another very important point. If you've spent your secondary education sailing through due to your natural genius, get ready to learn how to actually study. You can't breeze through university if you want a good degree.


In conclusion - University good, but losing worth.
