Rahul’s FB status: Farewell: My batch rocks.(Rahul is just out of Grade 10)
Jennifer’s FB status : The last day :My college is da best!( Jennifer is just out of Grade 12)
Govind FB status: Match my batch! Bet no one can! (Govind has finished his engineering course)
The month of April has many farewell photos uploaded on FB.As I scan through the ones put up by many of my ex students, I notice something.
They are all in their uniforms. They stand the same.
They look the same.
They radiate the same attitude.
They all are ready in the same way.
There is something highly unsettling about this.
Mind bender: Is this what our higher education system is doing to them? Are we churning out clones? Are uniformed futures the fate?
