A Brief Project
I was recently in the kitchen preparing some food for a bbq and listened to a podcast about merit. Certification is a verfication of merit. Its an idea that traces back through history to Aristotle and Confucious. I’ve been having a long battle with mostly older folks about the importance of education or a college degree. My argument that it is not nearly as valuable as it is sold for stands. The underlying purpose of acquiring a Bacherlors or Masters has been made clearer as it supports the right of anyone to be judged on their merits. We are entering a world in which the question of recently qualified certification is as relevant as recognzied degrees.
