Is the author serious? I mean, TOTALLY ABOLISHED? For what? Being free thinkers? WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO WHEN ONE IS CRITICIZED FOR THINKING BEYOND THE BOX?

Flawed premise, I see. UP apparently mass-produces socialist/progressive thinkers who are threats to society.

I don’t think so.

I think one of the reasons why people in UP think that way is due to the fact that we, the Iskolar ng Bayan, can directly feel the effects of our government’s misguided priorities. After all, it is the government who funds the university. We can therefore see where the funds go, or rather do NOT go to, and so we see the flaws in the system.
