“CHOOSING PROFESSIONAL COURSES - IS
IT TRUE CHOICE?”
It is a fact that TamilNadu is having sufficient number of engineering colleges to satiate the demand. However, in medical field it seems to be limited. And regarding non-professional courses the situation is satisfactory. When it comes to specific branches in professional courses the availability is not satisfactory since it is not decided by the choice of students but by extraneous factors like management perceptions, parents’ ambitions and the current job market demands. This will neither help the students nor the nation. Also the choice factor must be weighed with cost factor to decide true availability.

Meltdown and the changing job scene
Some economists had
foreseen and predicted the economic meltdown in the western countries and the
‘bursting of the bubble’ in the financial and the IT sectors. This meltdown
will help to bring a balanced view in career selection. It is better that we
turn our attention to jobs related to our own country. Let us consider this
meltdown as an ‘Oorvasi Shaba’ which will ultimately bring good to our country
by bringing
sanity in the youth. Let us hope that the government services will attract more
talented and innovative people in future.

HAS TIME TAKEN A TOLL ON TRADITIONAL
FESTIVITIES
Festivals to life are like lubrication between moving parts of machines to avoid friction, heat and wear outs. The grinding schedules of our work, the location of the work place and educational centers, travails of travel etc forbid us from festivities. The nuclear families in place of the traditional families, alienation from the native society and the general degeneration of youth who are in mad chase of material and monetary gains are some other reasons. Where is the simple man with his roots intact keeping his sensitivities and aesthetic mind ruminating the nostalgic feelings about our traditional festivities?

DISABLED CHILDREN MUST BE ADMITTED IN
MAINSTREAM SCHOOLS
There
are no legal hurdles in admitting disabled children in mainstream schools. The
mentally retarded, blind and deaf may not be admitted because of the inherent
difficulties. In all other cases there need not be a problem for such children
to be a part of the mainstream. Only thing required is a little amount of
compassion and special arrangements for the seats, vehicles, etc. Instead of
looking at them with sympathy they should be treated as equals and the school
authorities and teachers must imbibe these qualities amongst the students. They
are not ‘disabled’ but ‘differently abled’.

ROAD SAFETY
The
roads are one of the important infrastructures of a country. It belongs to all
like air and water. The concept that roads are engines for economic growth and
the stress is on speedier vehicular traffic. The roads must be useful to
pedestrians and cycles riders. Very often it is the elite and educated class
with their private vehicles who are defying the traffic rules with impunity.
The traffic regulators keep a Nelson’s eye towards such violations. A lot of
students, many of them minors, drive motor vehicles recklessly. The system of
issuing driving licences itself is riddled with corruption.
