Greeks: (Mis)Educated Childless Carnivores

(Mis)Educated: 82 European universities made it in list of the best 200 universities worldwide for 2010, as they are evaluated and listed annually by the Times Higher Education of the UK Times(http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/world-university-rankings/), but none of those were Greek. Harvard University is first on the list for yet another year, whereas the rest of the top 10 is comprised of American and two British universities. Thirteen countries from Europe find themselves on the list, but Italy and Greece, two countries with unparalleled academic history, are missing. Quality of education, number of publications, research, and motives for both professors and students were all taken into account when completing the list.

So Greek parents find themselves paying thousands in frontistiria annually, students' minds clog with useless information, and all their struggle at national exams, only in hopes of getting into some of Europe's worst academic institutions... Hmmm... Why is it that American universities in Greece are considered lower in quality than public Greek universities, again?

Childless: Greece and the rest of Southern Europe is growing old. Women keep putting off motherhood until they've completed other "cycles" of their lives...
