So far 4 students have committed suicides just in this year in KAIST. Some professors and students think this is caused by scholarship system which KAIST offers to students respectively to their GPA. So some opponents seem to be thinking this system push students to extreme situations. But, I totally disagree with this idea. Think the others in KAIST although they are suffering from stress as much as dead students are. They still survive. Why does people think KAIST push them to death? It was not a KAIST REQUEST, it was a just their choice.
I’m so sorry for them about their lack of self-love. When people try to suicide because of their low GPA, is this really a responsible for university? It’s ridiculus. In the real world, the situation is more severe. In the real world, there is no chance like re-taking the course they did wrong or were unsatisfied with. Actually, university is the last gate to enter our own field.
Should we really want to be protected by University as we were high-school students?
No way! We are not children anymore! And we should not consider university students as children. We are adults who can build our own decisions and be responsible for what we do. Committing a suicide is a really stupid behavior. If we really worry about this chain suicide, we should this why they could not make right decision when they are in hardship. Apparently, there are so many alternatives instead of committing a suicide. They could have quit KAIST or taken time off a year or found something relieves their stress. But, they didn’t. If we really feel sorry for them, the reason why they couldn’t come up with more bright solution although they are adults and very smart students who are envied by so many young students in various kind of Engineering Department.
I think KAIST is doing well to make their students stronger and not to let them be stuck in a rut.
Please, don’t situate our life stable. When we feel really stable, our cells don’t need to be stronger. Then, when we face a sudden hardship, we can’t overcome at all.
Be stronger! Love ourselves more!
Your GPA is just one of you! It’s just like one part of our body. Sometimes we fall down and hurt our skin, but it will be recovered as time goes by. LOW GPA can never be a reason for committing a suicide even though you are the last place in your class. You have something else you’re good at instead of your present majors. Try to find more fit suits for your life.
It's not that we can smile because we are happy,
but we are happy because we can smile.
Since when were you following others' criteria?
We are happy not because we get ALL A+,
but because we can do study.
You can study. This is happy itself.
Why don't you know your life is gorgeous when you think poorer students in undeveloped country.
You can do study which some people really want to do although they can't get All A+ but they can't because of nationality or qualification of previous scholar career.
Before look at the social atmosphere, Please...
Look at yourself Sincerely!
Feel how much lovely and happy your life is itself without comparing to others' own.
