Now is the time for demand-driven education systems

Editor,I thank Stephen Mugisha for shading light on the issue – I totally agree with him. But as he said, most of our universities are young and we need to appreciate the fact that at a young stage, you can’t have everything in place.

Editor,I thank Stephen Mugisha for shading light on the issue – I totally agree with him. But as he said, most of our universities are young and we need to appreciate the fact that at a young stage, you can’t have everything in place. Even those public universities that you mentioned – with fairly better infrastructure – never started like that.As an educationist, I personally don’t take physical infrastructure as a high priority though important, but rather having competent staff and learning resources in place.John M, Kigali, RwandaReaction to Stephen Mugisha’s commentary, "University education: time for demand-driven output”, (The New Times, July 16)
