I feel so sorry about the kind of graduate we produce today in our university. Gone are the days were education was strictly meant for the smart and hard working students who knew that their success depend on what they have up there.
What kind of graduates are we producing? Considering the alarming increase of unemployed young graduates, it is necessary for us to adapt a new strategy. A graduate is a student who has completed all academic requirement and obtain the necessary grade to pass out in the university.
Now what happen when as a Registrar in the university you are approach by a year two student who request to graduate despite been aware that he hasn't yet completed all requirement to graduate. I actually wonder what they are think ? Is university a place were you buy certificate? Are we producing empty brains graduate? What is going on here?
Nothing comes easy, it is important for students to understand that when one is a graduate, he should be able to defend the certificate he tender or carry around.
