WHAT WILL YOU SHOW AFTER FOUR YEARS
IN THE UNIVERSITY?- SONU CHAIR-Zack Kinuthia
Education is the key.This is
probably the earliest statement of wisdom that you came across.You must have
either rejected or adopted this nugget. However,the
anti statement loyalists did so out of frustrations that this key was evading
them. The pro statement because they hoped that doors will flung at the might
of the key.
Far from the attachment that you draw from the wisdom,I want to express my disillusionment of my fellow colleagues in the academia.
The key that was, as I have come to rightly hold, was not just to open doors of happiness which it can, especially economic halls, but to close the doors of pains of life.
In Athens,back then, the fathers of logic and philosophy, went out of line to reveal to the people that the happiness they needed could only be found in liberty. Liberty of mind and conscience. The antidote being education.
The free man would only be found within and beyond the precepts of education. The greatest crusaders of this liberator are usually the ones with the least or none of education, perhaps because they feel the pain of the contrary.
I will join the long list of the elders who perpetuate the call to education. Nevertheless, I would rather put it clear that my campaign for education is on a different panorama. Not the one that formed the source of my disillusionment.
Education that sharpens the mind and blunts the soul succeeds in making imps. Education that ignores the faculty of imagination leads to robots.
Useless of all is the education that teaches humanity the skills for making money while breaking the family. Education that orients our children that one’s talents are meant for their personal gratification is our enemy.
Education that seeks to compare the learners leads to discord.
Four years in the university is enough time for one to surrender the emotions destructive like anger and intolerance at the altar of education.
Four years are seen to succeed when the culprits are confidently courteous to disagree with positions they hold differently. Real education for a graduate who hopes to be one, is the greatest defender to violence of capitalism.
If anyone leaves the university with wavering stands about the pertinent issues of societies,disown them. If anyone leaves the university with grammatical errors and pathetic reasoning capabilities, strip them the title 'our pride.' If anyone after four years can throw a punch as their defence of reason, tremble. If they cannot hold their flesh under hostage against destructive emotions because money blinds them,refuse them land. Education must be the Key.
