Dare to Dream

NO nation can make its dream come true unless its education system is free from corruption and is scientific and rightly guided. But in Bangladesh, corruption has been the inseparable part of our education system. Every year, we witness the failure of the NCTB to provide textbooks to students even after five or six months into an academic. As a result, students, especially those in the rural areas, are the ones who suffer most. The situation is even worse in the arena of higher education.

However, I often dare to dream that a day will come when the anomalies of our education system will be wiped away, and our next generation will receive an international standard education thus enabling them to contribute to the development and progress of the country. If we act together on this wonderful vision, the dream will come true one day.

STAR CAMPUS started its journey 3 years back with a view to linking young minds together. Since its inception till now it has been publishing various updated information of university club activities, showed silent protest against social violence through writings, revealed many latent personalities and their contribution to whole world and many more. But there are other important issues, which we need to address immediately. One example is - our transportation system. We need to take steps urgently to mitigate this problem. We also need to keep up the good work of recent years in the educational sector. Moreover, we need to focus on eliminating corruption completely from the public sphere. That is how I think someday we will be able to change our contaminated wind.
