I was watching TV Patrol last night, waiting for follow-up stories on the death of Stephanie Nicole Ella - a victim of indiscriminate firing on New Year's Eve. But what really caught me was this video featured in the Bayan Mo, IPatrol Mo (BMPM) segment.
The video, which run 1:43, showed a professor at a college in Manila violently cursing at his students and hitting one. It is quite alarming that a professor, who some of us may look up to, will explode with this kind of behaviour at school and with students around. What's worse is this dispaly of physical violence towards the students, particularly a girl in the video.
We know not all teachers are like him. well, maybe he too was provoked. We owe the benefit of the doubt, but in any case, one's temper should never be a reason to harm and imperil any person, physically or not.
Teachers are our unsung heroes, and they remain to be- but not all of them, maybe.
