BIG NEWS FOR EDUCATION IN US

I was going through my daily dose of news when I saw this news and this is a biggie.President Obama announced a $12 billion plan for community colleges in an effort to aid the United States towards its goal of highest proportion of graduates by 2020. Now that is what we call ambitious.For the complete story,visit http://http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090714/pl_nm/us_usa_education_obama.Yes I have given up the practice of copying the whole story to my blog as it is time consuming and did not go well with a visitor to the blog.So I will only post links.Whoa!I wish our government did something similar as ourhigher education system is mourning its downfall.But then again we are not America,we are Pakistan. Wish I had that kind of power,then I would make the educational system my first priority.Listen everyone! Pakistan can not flourish until we get good education.Is not the vision to see pakistani people getting good education reason enough to live, to strive,to put forward one's life. For me it is!
