Quoting Trudy:



A student who hates to read compulsory books is a bad student? What a prejudice!




Very simple formula: if you don't read, you can't get good mark. If you don't have good marks, you can't join the University. If you don't join the University, you can't become a teacher.

Pride or prejudice, that is the question... lol

If you label them as "classics" I think its an instant turn-off to some people! "Classics" are a wide range of novels which have have become regarded as such because they are so wonderfully written!

People imagine them all to be "heavy going" when in fact they are all diverse and unique.

Love of reading comes from chosing books(whatever kind) that you enjoy - not those which you are made to read - at school, college wherever

Absolutely right, Aenigma! But they will never know what good stuff they have missed.

Still prejudice. You don't know the schoolsystem in the Netherlands and use your own standards for judging it. Getting good marks (and thus going to university) is also possible with other things, writing papers, essays, having speeches in front of the complete school etcetera.

Those who read both books will recognize my paraphraze anyway... Maybe I should have written: "Read or not to read"...

If they are wondering THAT, then they must be your spammers venturing into the Forum arena
