Advantages of a public university over a private
You know most people like the private universities. Some would go for it because it is always available to accept them considered the money is available, while others fancy it just 'cos of the respect that comes with it.
The rest hate it because it is expensive
But i've got a reason to support the advantage of Public universities over the Private universities. Aside from the private university being a personal buisness, there are some benefits you get from a public university that is far from been found in a Private university
Some of those advantages are below—
Public universities allow for freedom and independence
Students in public universities enjoy the freedom to make decisions for themselves and learn to be almost independent. Private universities keep students within the four walls of their campuses and under certain rules more suited for teenagers than young adults. The laws in public universities are not imposed on the students; they are just the basic principles a normal student is meant to follow. It’s funny when I see pictures of private university students being punished or hear of certain rules like compulsory attendance of chapel, feeding time tables, dress codes, etc. My God are these Adult students or Secondary boarding school students?
Cost of education
Tution fee (cost of education) is far cheaper in public university than a private one and this is not limited to school fees. Cost of living on public universities is also cheaper, you know students cook their own meals and have access to shops on campus and in town where prices of goods and services meet their pocket; not like a private university.
“Exposure” to life from the public university
It’s more than obvious that public university students are ”sharper” than private university students.
Private university students who are often referred to as “JJC” by public university students, live “the microwave life” which is the easy life. In federal universities you get to meet all sorts: from cultists to Aristo chicks, people with different personalities. It makes one exposed to what life really is. One is exposed to the hustle and learns how to struggle for things. There are still brats in federal universities but most of them get to grow up when exposed to the hustle.
Fun of on and off campus
There are so many parties to attend, clubs and events. One gets to meet real people, one also learns to be real. There is a lot of gist and gossip, lot of things to laugh at; you know now, all thos things that keeps it memorable. Dating is even fun in federal schools. One gets to see students that are rich and poor mingling as equals; students who express themselves through their dressing and not relegated to some uniform.
Compulsory hard work to enable concentration
Students in public universities have worked through exceptional odds to succeed; challenges that help one not take life for granted. Imagine a department of over a thousand students with a very small lecture hall or a lecturer who spends only thirty minutes in a class where he is meant to spend three hours, or one who only gives only but handouts. Faced with issues like these, students work extra hard to come out with well-deserved results.
The troubles of public universities makes their students ready for life.
With all the challenges: strikes, strict lecturers, freedom to express yourself as adult etc., public universities are more ready for life after graduation. They know that things would not just be handed to them and are used to making decisions for themselves.
I hope i didn't step on anyone's toes, i only spilled out some points.
