A college Educated Filipino

Owners of schools, College and university owners ought to be the promoters of civilization. Teachers and professors ought ought to be the guardians of a sane and a healthy society.

We think of education as the transmission of a certain body of settled knowledge. On the contrary, education ought to be about the development of a scientific habit of mind. Indeed, learning as a process of lively analysis, and not a matter of deadly paralysis.

It is sad and painful to see college educated men and women of this country carry a heavy load of useless guilt on their backs. They even believe
it as being blessed by God with peace and joy in life. As a matter of historical fact, they are intellectually crippled by its destructive weight. It is, in this way, that they readily serve a silly divinity up there rather than play vital roles in the development of sanity of our country via its growth and maturity down here.

I said it before, I say it again: A college educated Filipino who is always worried whether his soul might saved or might be damned usually has a soul that isn't worth saving or worth a damn. Poch Suzara
