RE: UKNM: Fresh Minds

[Deborah Bonello]

Well said Charlie - it's all very well to band on about the virtues of

school leavers and the lessons of life etc, but let's not forget University

is there for a reason - it's not just for the sloaney upper classes in the

UK - and if you don;t work you don't get through.


Guess you didn't go to Uni then Ben and are basing your assumptions on Ben

Elton stand-up and Loaded banter?

Ben,


You said 4 things which I will deal with separately:


1. Ben Metcalfe wrote: "Why do you say that school leavers are looking for

long-term employment with just one company?  I don't think there is any

proof or reason to assume that"


I never said (or implied) this, what on earth makes you think that I did? -

besides it surely has nothing to do with this debate.


2. Ben wrote: "surely school leavers are the people who have taken the

initiative, got off their a***s and learnt skills independently".


I think it is wrong for you to claim that university graduates have not got

off their a***s and learnt skills independently. I know of loads of grads

that have taught themselves all manner of skills outside their university

education. Do you have anything to back up your claim?
