remember this : IF in a downturn , Company has to lay off :

The non Uni folks go first.

Fact .

I wanna stress that a Uni education is not only to get a JOB :

BUT to make you a well rounded and knowledgeable Citizen of the World !

you too funnee!!!  ::LOL::

I used that strategy with a small company I was consulting with !

The owners insisted on that ...i knew it was a dumb approach !

you see the thing is Ketch.....one has to know one's child!

and where our son is right now is beyond our expectations (you can say he was a bad-boy!!  .....yes, our son a bad-boy  :o )

so i am extremely proud!!

The gist of this Global action on Education :

is NOT to make a Parent less proud of their thir non graduates Children.

BUT to encourage education as a means to improve the Economy:

via Thinkers , Innovators and Inventors :

something which an undergraduate and graduate programs prepare you for .

Nowhere Else .
