THE STUDENT OF TODAY

             It is not unnatural that ideologies and ideals change from generate of to generation. The students in olden days mainly followed an oft-quoted maxim, ‘Reading is a meditation for the students’. The main objective of an ideal student at that time, was reading, reading and reading to learn his coveted subjects. The students were diligent and dutiful in those days. They were also very much obedient to their teachers and betters.
             But the image of the students today is somewhat different. The calm of the earliest days is absent now. Today’s students face more competition. Pressures in various forms plague them today. The total degeneration of the society, cultural decadence and multifarious activities which are the essential features of present day’s hectic life have given the students somewhat different face. The present age demands not only study, but also some other achievements to suit the need of the day.
             Actually in these days, full of variegated problems a student faces some practical problems which were absent in olden days. Now, a student is called upon to show courage and determination o hold up his ideals.
