*Dear All,
The very reason we need to do more as westnilers is contained in the New
Vision of yesterday 29th July 2010, page7 and 8 but story on page 1.
Although the data presented was inconclusive, the signs are clear that
public university entry by students from westnile is very low. Just look at
the statistics as presented yesterday although I could not quickly make out
Nyapea;
Position School Gov't

227 Ombaci 2

*Totals 7
260
I still believe that these figures are not accurate but it is still a bad
state of affairs for our region. Could we have someone with access to proper
figures correct the figures otherwise we are doomed as a region.
Do not forget and start celebrating admission to private sponsorship bse
most of the parents wont afford the high tuition being charged by these
public universities let alone upkeep.
Over to you to ponder over.
