Deviance on a Global scale

Honesty, I believe that we are subsequently promoting "deviance" on a global scale, even without a notice. The common success-goal of wealth is so deeply embedded in our daily life that almost no one could escape from it. Wealth become one of the most significant standard to evaluate people's success. In order to earn a relatively higher social ranking, one has to take the post secondary education, in order to get a better paid job. I totally agree with Namra's point. UBC is a good example for this. One of the reason why many students chose to study in UBC is because they believe that attending UBC could to some extent guarantee that they could get a good paying job and "success" in the future.
