W: Hello, Professor White, welcome to Education Today on Saturday.
M: Thank you.
W: How do you comment on the current phenomenon of college tuition?
M: Well, once you accept students on financial grounds, one wonders whether you have to pass them as well-But this development in education is one that we have to contend with. Yet, if we are concerned about mamtaining standards, what we can do is to concentrate on improving the quality of education.
W: Yes, you’re right. A university is judged by the quality of education it offers. Professor White, what type of graduates do universities of the future need to produce, if they are to remain relevant?
M: I think their graduates must be able to shift from one profession to another, because they are trained in a very independent way. If you can do that, you raise the level of the flexibility of the mind. Today’s rapid changes in technology demand it.
W: I guess many people would agree with you on that point. University education should focus on both personal and professional development of students. But still some might believe there is a definite place for education in a broader sense, that is, in personal intellectual development.
M: No doubt about that. We need people who will think about the future, about the past, and also people who will think about society. If a society doesn’t have philosophers, or people who think about the value of life, it’s a very sad society indeed.
W: Professor White, my last question: do you see any common ground in education between your generation and the young generation now?
M: Adapting to new challenges is perhaps the true cornerstone of our generation’s heritage to education. And the future of education in a country rests not so much on the construction of better buildings, labs, etc. , but in the development of an ever-adaptive mind.
W: Professor White, it’s been a pleasure to have you on the show today. Thanks for being our guest.
