Abstract:
The ethos of our current education system has let loose two social forces: eager acquisition and narrow competition. These forces are creating more consumers and fewer contributors in the education space. Economic prosperity means nothing unless it creates equal and rightful opportunities for one and all. This can only happen if we become sensitive to and subsequently address issues pertaining to discrimination, social or economic. We will fail in our duties if we cannot uphold our unity, being one of the most diverse countries in the world, through realization of a higher purpose of being. Education can open our eyes to such a realization.
