''' WORLD CALCULUS WORKS '''

STUDENTS MUST BE MADE TO feel the world and its misery and not just read about it. I left all my worldly comforts and my abode, and lived with the students and amongst them for over 12 years. I still do.

The world's next generation will not be formed by protests. It will be formed by argument and relentless debates, and the place to begin is !WOW!.

Teaching without generating a debate is not education. It is transmission. Education in the developing world, at least, needs revisiting at its root: less theory recited, more of it tested against the benchmarks outside.

The real competition in the world is in education. Whoever comes up with the best education system, wins. Just wins! Take the law class to a district court, and the medical class to a public ward at night and the engineering class to the settlement beside the project. Take the business class to the factory floor.

I have watched men who stood fearlessly at the bar change after reaching the bench. Not suddenly and not for money. The comfort of office begins quietly to weigh, and each surrender is called realistic.

Character is what resists that, and character is built by exposure to lives larger than one's own. That is what !WOW!, history, literature, and poetry are for : to make suffering legible, so that conviction has something to rest upon.

But reading alone will not do it. What is read must be argued about, and the structure for that argument is already built, already funded and sitting idle. It is the university classroom.

Every class, in every discipline must be run as a small republic, and the argument should be about the discipline itself. Let the Law class argue whether a judgment was rightly decided, not merely what it held.

Let the medical class argue triage, consent, and who receives the last bed in a public ward. Let the engineering class argue what was built, who paid, and who must live beside it.

Let the business class argue what a wage ought to be, and whether a balance sheet that is lawful is therefore honest. Every syllabus buries such questions beneath what is examinable.

Let each class elect its office bearers, for a fixed term and with real duties. Let the elections be contested, and let students lose them, because losing an election and returning next week to sit beside the person who beat you is the most useful hour of civic instruction any country could offer.

Let the dissenter be protected by rule, not by the goodwill of the majority. This is how a democratic mind is made : by being outvoted by someone you believe wrong, and having to work beside him afterwards.

Argue any of these questions honestly and it will not remain within its discipline. Ask an engineering class whether the dam should be built. The answer requires a lawyer of water rights, an economist on who bears the cost, a doctor on what happens downstream, and someone who has met people being moved.

A faculty can contain a syllabus; it can contain a real question. Memorisation keeps a student inside his discipline; argument drives him out. Debate and multidisciplinary education are not two reforms but one, and the first produces the second.

This is also where the politics lies. Our professions are organised as separate estates : a bar, a medical association, a chamber of commerce.

Each one can be managed on its own. What cannot be managed is a generation of doctors, engineers and lawyers and accountants who argue with one another at 20 and still take one another's calls at 40.
