With all these Korean students out protesting over one of the stupidest issues in a litany of stupid anti-US causes in Korea; is it any wonder why Korea’s educational system ranks so low?:

Korea stood fourth among 55 countries in terms of its university completion rate in this year’s World Competitiveness Yearbook, released yesterday by the International Institute for Management Development in Lausanne, Switzerland.

However, Korea ranked 53rd in the extent to which university education meets social and economic needs, one of the criteria for measuring the quality of higher education.

Korea tumbled in the overall competitiveness of the education sector as well, moving six steps down from last year to 35th.  [Korea Herald]

I have to think the KTU’s North Korean indoctrination teachings probably doesn’t help Korea’s global educational competitiveness either.
