Education is an Experience!

Recently Dr Andrew Hamilton was in India . He is the 271st Vice-Chancellor of the prestigious Oxford University. In an interview to The Times of India in New Delhi,he elaborated his strategy for the University.When asked about opening a campus in India ,he peplied that learning at Oxford is a life-time experience and 'Oxford cannot be franchised like hamburgers'.
Very true. Education is a lifelong experience to be cherished by every person through out his life.His interview is quite relevant at a time when India is planning to invite foreign universities to open campuses here. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/opinion/interviews/Oxford-cannot-be-franchised-like-hamburgers/articleshow/5733672.cms
