I'm always interested when student activities engage with 'real life', because this is where they learn how the world works, and also develop the networks that will help them through life. This interview with Sharowat Shamin about student politics in Bangladesh is a case in point. What's really interesting, though, about the interview is the overlap between all this and the effort to land civil service jobs, where not only is the competition intense, but also "the constitution requires positive actions, like quotas, to help marginalized groups including religious and ethnic minorites." It's not perfect, but then again, Bangladesh has 160 million people in an area the size of southern Ontario.
