    I agree with your point, sometimes I, too, question the purpose of education - was its true purpose to equip us with skills that would be of use, or simply a manipulative tool for institutions so they can improve on their rankings from graduates? This is a thought-provocative, powerful piece that truly ignites such intriguing and deep morals. Well done.

    This was good, except I didn't like all the exclamation points.

    Well you certainly got my attention! I especially liked the common sense part. That was a very powerful line! You are so right! Common sense is just as relative as most ideas and issues existing. But it seems that everything should be labled and justified. I think it's safer that way for most of people who dare not venture into uncharted territories. FUCK THAT! I'm all for your calling!
