How Going To University Was Like In Those Days (photos) by Nobody: 8:41am On Jun 11, 2016 |
Being an undergraduate in a university is a great feat but it cannot be compared to being an undergraduate in the 1960; then it was considered epochal. Ask people who went to universities during the period when you’ll be lucky to find 20 students in a class and they will tell you education during those days was worth it. They’ll tell you there were no distractions and it was about work and play and work again. The University College which later became the University of Ibadan is the first university in the country and being a student in the university was attaining an impressive height. A lot has changed in the Nigerian academic system especially in the tertiary institution. Gone are the days when school cafeterias provided balanced diet meal to students and the only thing they needed to worry about was getting the food from the plate to the mouth. The days where students could afford to seat anywhere in class because they was enough space to go round; when student hostels were cleaner than 5 star hotels and each student got his own space and there was no need to squat. Students nowadays will tell you there was no better time to go to school than now. To them, the old universities were too strict as students had to sometimes wear robes like they were at Hogwarts. They say undergraduates in those days were treated like secondary school students with strict everyday rules to guide them.

You can as well move backward if u like.... There is nothing like good old days because i wonder wat u will stil call dis corrupt generation in a century to come. Every era/time has its own bed of roses...its just unfortunate that the present day Nigeria has given room for the stone age to disgrace her. Just imagine, no fb, no nairaland, no wifi...guy, i no fit live.... Its gone and gone 4 life and i even thank God i didnt witness it because maybe na civil war go don kill me....#rip_shuabobo 3 Likes |

My Goodness, education standards have fallen really badly in Nigeria. One Nigeria is hampering the progress of the Yorubas, we are too forward thinking for this contraption called Naija, and all its wahala...... See how far we already were since the pre-independence days, and the days of proper regional governments. 23 Likes 4 Shares |
