We,Serbia,are lost,there's no debate there.But I hope that Russians won't be so naive and will force their "old school".

After all,for God's sake,if that "old" system was bad,the cyrilic(Russian and Serbian letter) wouldn't be the first letter in both space,and underneath the Earth's crust(Kola peninsula borehole).

I Hope that Russia will make a balance,maintainig benefits from both "old" and "new" system,and thus it's intellectual and scientific power,which was always great.

Bologna process is a bunch of bullshit designed to turn people,students that is,into a narrow minded, narrow-specialized idiots and collect more money for the elite from student's parents. Students are people,not tools to be (strictly) specialized to do one same thing.

I hate Bologna,and I hate that my country,Serbia,along with Russia implemented this. Also,it's not even implemented completely,so every professor and univercity do what they want,and in the end,it's students who suffer.

Isn't this system suicidal for the elite? 10 smart units may be able to counter 100 lesser units, but an entire population is a hell of a stretch.

Education in the West sucks big time.
