Today, with the improvement of people’s living condition, more and more families can afford to go to school. After graduation, some people got a good job or maybe became a famous person with the help of the good education and degrees. As for them, certificates, diplomas, and degrees are regarded as a status symbol, a passport to the private club of power and money. However some real evidence seems to be nothing with the good education background, like many brilliant people, Einstein was a weak math student, like many successful businessmen, Bill Gates never completed college, like many inventive and creative people, Edison never went to school. Similarly, many of the world’s political leaders do not have master’s degrees or doctorates. We can not deny the role of diplomas for people. However we should respect and admire a person by what he can do for the society, not what kind of diplomas he have; also we should pay more attention to cultivate students to learn the real capability of serving people and country, not the ability of obtaining the degrees.
