There is this talk by one of my senior colleagues about professionalism and ethics. I have been thinking about the same issue for quite some time especially after the incident of “minah-t-test-tak-tahu“. I am lucky that when I was called by the Dean, the late Prof Bahar, he told me to buckle up knowing how difficult it is to deal with such student. He told me to stay true to myself no matter what. His emphatic view is something that I will treasure for the rest of my life. For others who blame me for being irrational and take sides on this obnoxious student, aren’t you being hypocrites? I find this article from Psychology Today about integrity in the workplace. Yup. It is worth to have a stand rather than being “boneless” or “chameleon”.
