* Criticism of the educational qualifications of officials of the Islamic Republic *
At the beginning of the revolution, the officials were humble and humble and called each other brothers and sisters and considered the titles of doctor and engineer to belong to Taghutis or liberal and westernized religious people. The title of doctor in non-medical fields was something like a suit and tie.
The few revolutionary officials who settled down became Haj Agha and Haj Khanum! But after the war, Haji gradually fell out of fashion. Thanks to the Azad University and some universities affiliated with the armed forces, the former Haj men and women got degrees and suddenly became doctors! At the same time, the officials took off the overcoats and the thick beards of those wearing suits were shortened.
In another development, the officials moved from the poor and middle-class neighborhoods of the cities to the elite neighborhoods such as Afrika Street, Saadat Abad, Zafaranieh, and Niavaran. The doctorate title has now become one of the main tools for advancement in the political pyramid. Some people became doctors with political rent and money without entrance exam, attending class and studying hard.
The vulgarity of the degree started here. Nizami Kodani, who is known for making stupid comments, claimed that he received a doctorate in economics from Tehran University with an average of 18 and ruined the reputation of this prestigious university. Some smart people went with the help of brokers from universities in Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Belarus, India, and the Philippines and bought original degrees for a few hundred dollars. Some people bought a fake degree from Oxford with two thousand dollars and enjoyed its material and spiritual benefits. Being a member of the academic staff of the universities has become a political value among the officials, which requires, in addition to a doctorate degree and the use of a party to enter, writing articles and books for promotion. Essay and book making has become an industry. Whether you are a minister or a member of the parliament, you can hire some people to write articles and edit books for you and pay them from your pocket.
Mrs. Sosan Keshavarz has written three books for Haji Babaei. Mrs. Swayzizi wrote one book and Mr. Yousef Nouri wrote one book and the rest with the help of a group of authors. How scandalous it is that a person named Mehdi Hashemi, with a fake degree in civil engineering, becomes the head of the engineering system organization and also the head of the construction commission of the 9th parliament. Some of these issues are usually mentioned in factional disputes. Right now, if the postgraduate and doctorate degrees of the 11th parliament representatives are verified, re-elections should be held!
The situation has become such that educated people with real degrees who have achieved doctorates through scientific effort are ashamed to be called doctors. Fake doctors and rentiers get thousands and thousands, while real doctors, especially in the fields of humanities, who are not hypocrites, knock on this door and that door to find a job, but they don’t get any results, and if they find a job, their salaries It does not match their literacy and expertise. Some even have to shut themselves up and not use their expertise in order to survive.
We are facing a ruling class that has trashed all the real values from literacy and degrees and research to university professorship and essay writing and book authoring.
