Alma "Matar"

Defaming the institutes that make us the individuals we are, is in my opinion, a shameful act. It is pitiful that we turn around to mud-sling the very places that have brought us all this way.

Often, with no exception to myself, I find people talking about the institutes, of which they are the alumni, in a manner that makes them seem the worst places to be. Little do we realise that defaming these stepping stones only signifies our dissatisfaction with who we are, and is a convenient way to shift blame.......

Well, if something's wrong at the alma mater, what's wrong in saying so. Maybe these people had bad experiences or their alma mater didn't live up to their expectations. What's wrong with saying that out loud? Why respect something simply because its your alma mater. Everything has to earn your respect. Even your alma mater. If it doesn't, its right to tell people so, so that when someone else is making decisions, they can make a well-informed one on whether to go there.
