A UCG without an Arts Degree is like RCSI without a medical degree. It’s integral to the fabric and culture of the university. I can’t believe we’ve allowed education to wander to the point that if something doesn’t plonk someone directly into a job, working for the man, it doesn’t have value.
‘Beating shall continue until morale improves’ mindset is bleeding the public health service dry of workers. Treat people well, they’ll stay. Simple as that.
I see this article is being heavily shared with the usual ‘if the state pays for their training they should be forced to work here’ comments. I paid €68,000 for my degree. Had to stop working as a GP trainee as the scheme wouldn’t facilitate part time hours.
