The end of education is character
Once a District Educational Officer was inspecting a school. He asked the teacher to find out from one of his pupils as to who wrote . The pupil innocently replied, "Sir, ! never wrote it; perhaps you might have written it." Then the teacher found himself in a miserable plight and turned to the Inspecting Officer to assure that he has not done so and tried to enquire if the officer had by any chance written the work. The District Educational Officer referred the matter, to be safe, to the Vice-Chancellor, who finally observed that some must have done it and advised the officer concerned to close the issue. This means that the state of affairs in our educational field today is so pitiable that our students, teachers, inspecting officers and Vice- Chancellors are all sailing in the same boat. Nobody knows about the author of a work-like . In these circumstances we are not justified in calling ourselves educated. We are wasting our precious time on imitation. The end of education is character and the end of knowledge is love.
