What do you think is the main purpose of education?
Reflect on this question for some time.

• To Learn
• To Get a Degree

Nothing that you will learn in the course of your studies will be of the slightest possible use to you, save only this, that if you work hard and intelligently you should be able to detect when a man is talking rot, and that in my view, is the main, if not the sole purpose of education.
I couldn’t agree more.
