I'm enrolled in a Graduate Certificate at Charles Sturt University and it's quite a terrible experience. I was excited to start this course as it felt like a concrete path towards a career change, but now I'm feeling a little lost.

The course content is poor, and class engagement is non-existent. Is this just what I should expect from tertiary education in 2025?

How do I think about this 'sunk cost'? (Has anyone ever received a refund from a university?)

Should I just continue to jump through the hoops to graduate?

Would love to hear your thoughts in comments or PM 🎓

Hey, #Vancouver? Do have an opinion on whether folks should be allowed to purchase alcoholic drinks after 2:00 am on the weekends? If so, please check out this survey and for crying out loud, sign up to take other surveys as well. Good #CommunityDevelopment can only happen with extensive stakeholder feedback and surveys are a really quick and easy way to do it. You're on the Internet already reading this; why not take an extra 10 minutes to fill out a survey?

Once more, I am choosing to promote the second part in the ongoing story written by Brandi Morin about the ongoing fight to preserve the Indigenous lands of peoples in the Ecuadorian forests of the Amazon jungle: ricochet.media/indigenous/bran

The reason I am continuing to follow this story avidly is because as part of my #CommunityDevelopment courses, one of the biggest levers to enduring systems change is changing the mindsets of the actors within the system.
