SSPSC ONLINE

Everybody was pleasantly surprised when the SSPSC Administration announced few days ago the opening of Internet access computers.As a student, I was able to visit the building. There were more or less ten computers to utilize. I was one of the lucky students who were able to use the computer on that day. The service was good. Just a click of a mouse everything you wanted to know was there.
Obviously, our campus showed modern improvement which is beneficial for us, students, who are eager to gain knowledge to be competitive in this high tech world.
With this technology, it would easy for us to accomplish any academic requirements and it provides us complete and latest information without sweat unlike finding books in libraries which is sometimes lacking. These were tools for us to enhance our knowledge and a bridge to a wider range in the world of learning.
I believe that the school was trying to make a difference and provide such facilities for the students benefits but there were murmurings in the campus about the expensive charge for this modern development.300 pesos was being added to our tuition fees while we can only use it five hours a day, only to those lucky fellow who can use the computer everyday.
Most of the students were here because they have financial difficulties. Their parents can't afford to send them to exclusive universities.
Since this is a state college, they were expecting to have less expense and they wonder why that amount was being charged for the Internet which was not costly to install? They should have informed the students before charging them.
