Does school really matter?

Saw this online and it seems the times haven't changed so much:

i am just curious,
bakit walang green and maroon (UP) sa school coats of arms na naka display?
dahil kaya, business and not science ang work?

Yeah, should have included UPd. Also, hindi lang FMCG ang MNC.

BTT: I think mga boomers and older ang SUPER conscious when it comes to schools. Last time I had lunch with family/family friends that are ALL boomers, the conversation mostly centered around schools or if they talked about someone nakakabit yung school, surname and province. Although amusing nga that they are all connected to each other in some way

well,
our family are UP.
"dun kasi mura, eh."

if UP did not accept me in med school,
malamang ay hindi na ako naka-duktor.
the other schools are simply, out of wallet-reach.

Puro mga may kaya din naman nag aaral sa UPd, mas lalo ata ngayon

hindi naman, po.
marami ring magaan lang ang kaya na naka enrol doon. take it from me. "i know."
hindi lang sila nagpapa-halata sa publiko.

remember some years ago?
the valedictorian was the son of a lavander. and his classmates either had no inkling, or knew but did not care.

one issue with society,
is that usually, only the noisy ones get noticed.

A significant population are of upper middle to upper class stock. I think the reason why hindi kasama sa meme eh they would tend to blend in to avoid being mocked (mga konyo) or at least tone down.

Nung time ko sa UP, though sa Los Banos ito, never napuno ang mga parking lots.
Ngayon, UP had to reserve parking spaces for faculty and staff because a lot of students have cars already.

but that is true of our public roads as well...
heh heh.
mas maraming kotse ngayon, nguni at hindi naman dumami ang surface area nang bansa.

yung ilang hospital, nagtayo na nang steel parking facility above their ground-level parking facility, to cater to their increased drive-in traffic.
sabi kasi nang research nila, they are losing potential costumers because the drive-in costumers have nowhere to park, and drive away to the competing facility.

many many thousands of years from now,
alien archaeologists digging thru our dust of history will conclude that back in the day, the planet was populated by iron entities, enslaving the human raize.
"... and this is the "nursery... where cars-citizens are born... and this here is the garage... where human slaves tend to the car-masters..."

i remember nung time ng sister ko sa diliman, may isang parking lot doon na tambayan ng isang frat and parang car show every time susunduin namin kapatid ko.

I would think so, primarily because of the deterioration of the public education system in general. There are more science high schools now, which is great, but I don't think it has caught up with the ridiculous increase in our population from the 2000's to the 2020's.

Personally, I really think there should be an income prerequisite for you to get a full scholarship to a state university. Full scholarships should only be given to the CDE socio-economic groups. The AB crowd should pay their own way, or at least, pay for most of it.
