Got a package from UMS enclosing leaflets of CCAs and of various VOLUNTEER activities/camps that "guarantee you'll fulfil the 80h VOLUNTEER work requirement".
Why the hell do they call it "VOLUNTEER work" when it's NOT voluntary at all? We did not VOLUNTEER. It was imposed upon us: a prerequisite to graduating. Imagine someone saying: "Oh, the undergrad didn't/couldn't graduate because he didn't do VOLUNTEER work". How preposterous! And pathetic. Has volunteerism relegated to this? Shouldn't volunteerism be an act/offer out of one's own free will? To force it down people's throat is nowhere near the definition of "voluntary" and is lamentable. They should just rename it "COMPULSORY community service".
