Certain people argue that university education should equip students with knowledge and skills required in the workplace. However, there are many who vocalize that the job of university is to provide education and not to prepare a graduate for an employer. In my context, I believe universities should focus on opening the minds of the students because bright minds are full of immense possibilities.

It is on the hands of the student to embrace the knowledge and modify it to other forms that he/she might find useful to embark on one’s endeavor in life.
Hence, universities are bodies of knowledge that will show one the various paths that lay ahead, but to choose a definite path and to follow it with true belief depends entirely on the one who is destined to set on this journey.
