It isn't fair for me to be charged a "penalty" by my college because I have fallen into worse poverty and cannot even afford a daily allowance for college or for petrol. I needed them to extend my semester, but they insisted on a penalty of RM400. I believe I must pay this when I re-enter college in July. However, I have decided not to pay it immediately, but rather to have a conversation with the staff first to discuss the matters behind the penalties that justify them being charged to me, and why I am being penalized due to my hardship (poverty) and need for a hiatus. #StudentDebt #PovertyIsNotACrime #EducationForAll #KrisisKewanganPelajar #MahasiswaMalaysia #KenaikanYuran #AcademicExploitation #FightTheFee #EducationApartheid #WaiveTheFee #StopStudentPenalties #SolidarityNotFines #CostOfLivingCrisis #YouthInDebt #BrokenEducationSystem #MalaysiaBoleh #ReformasiPendidikan #Malaysia #MSU #MSUCollege #Education #Vent #Hardships

Virginia Tech rant:

Did you know that Virginia Tech has one of the highest average annual salaries per management position? President Tim Sands makes a whopping $840,546 annually, which is an increase from his original $600,000 annual income.

Did you also know that the president of the United States of America is paid $400,000.

Why does Tim Sands make more than 2 times the US president's salary?
