Student: Hello?
X: Hi Student, how are you? This Ms. X from the university calling.
Student: Good morning, maam! What is the matter you are calling me today?
X: As you know, a great VIP is coming down next week. Students should take this chance to meet the person who famous worldwide. So, do come for the award session, OK?
Student: Oh maam, this is study week for exam. We are having exam next week. I can’t afford to attend the ceremony.
X: I know. That’s why we will give you 5 marks for attending the ceremony. How? OK or not?
Student: 5 marks? Hmm…make it 10 and I’ll attend (grins to himself).
X: 10 cannot la. 5 is OK.
Student: OK, I’ll try to attend it. 5 marks can help me to pass some subject.
X: OK, make sure you remind me to mark your attendance on that day. Bye.
Student: Bye.
Now, what kind quality education you expect to get if by attending a award presentation ceremony, you get 5 marks for your subject? Who decided on this modus operandi? Does MQA know about this?
Really creative place to study.
Did I mention about having a “rehearsal” when the rest of the organization is on leave and the bunch of wise leaders ask their department people to attend? No food because cafe is closed (public holiday, duh!). No general workers around (something about lack of written memo – maybe they worried no OT). Academicians have to arrange tables and chairs.
And they have the gall to ask to come again on Sunday.
