The Reason Behind banning politics in the GUC.

The reason behind banning politics in the GUC or any other university is quite simple and don't need a genius to figure it out, Politics bring problems due to the face that the students will take side in terms of political groups which will lead to demonstrations like for some political groups against others like what is happening now exactly leading to the disturbing of the academic life and more over hatred and aggression possibility between students from opposing political group which could and will lead to undoubted confrontation between both parties and will lead to violence at the end that may hurt some students physically and maybe worse.

The whole idea is that the universities are the places for learning and research and the participation and creation of social , academic activities in all it's categorize but not politics . Those activities build the character and personality of the student over the course of his study at the university and if some students have a political life that they want to practice there are political parties in Egypt in which they can participate, but the idea of enforcing that political activities be accepted in the university will only bring harm to the academic process itself and will bring more harm to the students and let me explain more.

The university sole purpose is learning and building a character , so if you looked at learning it includes all the academic life including the courses being taught and the projects and all the academic events held at the university but it also include learning the skills of how to interact with people and how to deal with situations and problems you face in life which is directly linked to the building of the character which the student face in every day activity and in the social activities arranged by the AWGs at the universities.

If you supported having political gatherings at the university and political life you are facilitating the ground for people with sick and selfish political purposes to infiltrate the students supporting this political group and ensure that they affect other students to follow their political path and this will somehow form a pressure on some students that they are feeling that there are certain group of people they cannot deal with because of they refuse their political opinion and this doesn't not just include students but also Professors , TAs and all the non-academic staff at the university. If it was allowed maybe some professor will not be fair with a student because he is in a certain political party that opposes the professor's opinions and views , the same goes with the TAs or with any non-academic staff . The whole point itself will create a struggle socially , academically and if progressed maybe physically if the supporters of some party decided to have a demonstration in the university against another.

This is what I believe in some may disagree with me and their views are respected .

GUC Engineering 2012-2013 Newcomers Advice's

1) The first year is the most important year , you will be studying few number of courses each semester and each course will have large number of credit hours like mathematics which weighs 8 credit hours , so You need to score a high grade in the first year and believe me when I say that the first year is the easiest so if you got a A or A+ in your first year rest assured that this will help you during your next 4 years plus if you adjusted yourself to a studying style that guarantees to you a good grade you will stick to this style for the next years in college as you will be adapted to it. 2) If you are the kind of person who studies only 2 weeks before exams , this will NOT work at the GUC and will cause you sometimes to fail some courses if you are not usually a studying person type so in order to avoid this , Please study week by week and finish what you have first , sometimes you will have deadlines that will make you postpone studying for some time and this is normal at t...

What Should we do when we have an internal battle between what's right and what should be done?

We have all passed through this stage , where you have your morals , principles tested about doing what is right and doing what should be done. It is strange really because we usually take the easy way out and do what should be done , in some situation we look at the greater good and in others we try to value which will get us in less trouble. But we miss the most important point, Principles are made to be as reference point for us like a beacon so as not to walk in the wrong direction . At the same time we cannot ignore the fact that we as human beings are emotional , we may try to bend our principles over for some emotional fact that we need to feed or for the need of the feeling that we are not just machines who abide by certain rules. I believe that sometimes most of us bend or break their principle at least once or twice during their life time for the above two reasons. It is not a shame in-fact that's what makes us humans, but the most important questions is How far are yo...
