W.D. Lakshman: Sri Lanka’s university education is not inclusive
Colombo University’s former Don and reputed educationist Professor W.D. Lakshman, in delivering the J.E. Jayasuriya Memorial Oration 2013 in Colombo last month on inclusive university education and the State university in the country, has left his audience with four main conclusions.
The first is that in terms of opportunities for university education, only a small proportion of students who qualify for admission to a university is admitted to the country’s State university system and therefore there is no inclusiveness in higher education.
