Knowledge and Diploma
It is widely believed that a high diploma will bring us a bright future. Many people think high-level diploma is equal to profound knowledge and exceptional ability. Companies are inclined to hire a job candidate according to his diploma. In one word, there does exist a social reality-the higher diploma one gets, the more popular he becomes.
On the contrary, others claim that competence or knowledge means more than diploma. First and foremost, a diploma is only the acknowledgment of one’s educational experience rather than a guarantee of ability. Thus, the depth of one’s knowledge can’t be measured by the level of one’s diploma. Besides, many knowledgeable people don’t possess a high diploma.
From my standpoint, no one should ever equate a diploma with knowledge, because a diploma is nothing but a proof of a short-term study while your true ability and knowledge come from your hard work and lifelong devotion.
