Well, someone has to certify the university. They wouldn't stay certified long if they just gave diplomas to anything with a pulse.

- randomdata 5y agoAs a Canadian, the most educated nation in the world, we do pretty much give diplomas to anything with a pulse. It doesn't affect school credibility, it merely pushes people to feel like they need even higher levels of formal education to compete.
- ericmay 5y ago> As a Canadian, the most educated nation in the world > we do pretty much give diplomas to anything with a pulse What's the metric for being the most educated nation? 'Cause ya know if it's "most diplomas per capita" or something and you freely give them out... we might want to rethink that lol. Just something to think about I guess
- randomdata 5y ago> What's the metric for being the most educated nation? The metric OECD uses.
- ericmay 5y agoWhat’s that metric?
- randomdata 5y agoWhatever they state the metric is, I imagine.
- ericmay 5y agoInteresting. Well I'll just assume it's based on number of degrees and that it's probably not an accurate assessment of how educated a country really is, since degree != education.
- randomdata 5y ago> Well I'll just assume it's based on number of degrees Seems like a pretty fair assumption given that is the topic of discussion. > since degree != education. Quite true, but as everyone gains an education every minute of their lives, the most educated will be the oldest population. I'm not sure that's particularly useful information.
