Work / Poland is not the best country to get part time job with study? [59]


Not working, is it, given that year on year the number of people who come to study is increasing.


Rubbish. As you've been told, it's increasing hugely. The government in Poland see this as a priority, hence the increase in degree courses taught in English.

It looks like facts are not very important to you.

Study / Overview of the WSGE university in Poland [42]

No, as youve been told by people who know, it is a normal institution.


An interestingly disparaging choice of words, particularly from someone who doesn't know what (or where) they're talking about. For reference, the university I work at doesn't recruit - we have a queue of people, most of whom we reject. Nor do I recruit; my job is managing the degree curriculum and placing postgraduates elsewhere.

No, Dominic, it isn't. See above - their courses are valid and approved - however much you may dislike that.

Interesting that you mention the nationality of one of the board...

Interesting that two posters spend a lot of time trying to deter people with dark skin and different religions from coming to Poland.

The cold hard facts (I write as someone who works as an academic manager in a university, sending postgraduates to study in, among other places, Poland) is that more and more overseas students come to universities in Poland, the strength and visibility of those courses is growing, and all participate in the ECTS scheme and their degrees are validated by the Polish Ministry of Education.

And yes, more and more students work part-time during their studies.

It isn't a 'fake school' Dominic, no matter how much you'd like to deter people from India from coming to Poland. It is a postgraduate institution accredited by the Polish Ministry of Education, and its courses are in line with the ECTS academic credit transfer scheme. It participates in the Erasmus scheme.

There's no redress anyway under normal conditions for studenty jobs.


There you go again. Poland is increasingly a destination for oveseas students, whether it fits in with your insecurities or not.

No surprises at all - some people prefer to whine.

Did you know that pre-war, the Polish army was significantly larger than the British Army. In many ways a military state back then.

Some here would be surprised at how many students who don't speak Polish are working, especially in larger cities.

The poster in question has 'views' on immigration. His 'views' are however irrelevant, since the number of overseas students in Poland increases year on year.

Exactly, plus giving a home to their government and refugees and helping with the Uprising, despite the Russians' and Americans' refusal to assist.

For, not on.


This was debunked by the last ambassador. There was nothing to do, since Poland, attacked on two fronts was a lost cause and nothing to do it with. In any case, Poland had previously broken the treaty; it was by 1/9/39 utterly null and absolutely void.


Anther myth of yours...

News / Mass immigration to Poland - article and response [479]

Merged:

The Catholic Church welcomes immigrants to Poland

A very nice quote from Cardinal Kazimierz Nycz, the Archbishop of Warsaw:

"A meeting with a refugee is for every Christian an opportunity to meet with Christ...It is our task to accept refugees...How many times we [Poles] were those who migrated...in search of an easier and better life, during wars and in the post-war period?"

He also said "it is our task and the task of the Church to accept refugees, protect them against all kind of threats, promote them in an environment in which they have found themselves while seeking a better life or escaping the threat of death or persecution, and participate in the process of the integration of these people."

Very few overseas students do that. Most live in hall.

There are some, however you will be at an advantage if you speak Polish to a reasonable level.

Most don't...


I doubt much logic enters his 'mind' about this.

Yes. The fascists wanted to wipe out Poland. The communists didn't.

I never, ever watch videos; I prefer to read. Some of the stuff that I've read from serious historians is chilling enough, as are some of the stories I've been told by people who lived through those awful times. There can be no denying that wartime Poland was one of the most dangerous and unpleasant places to be, and both the SS/Wermacht and the Red Army made it so.


Not yet.

No surprises, if you can't get into your home and people are trying to kill you.

Many Poles of Jewish background didn't however. They stayed in their homeland.

The overwhelming majority of pages on that site are about other things - often intended to shock - and human suffering should not be a voteuristic experience for web surfers.

The crimes of the mid-twentieth century have been bvery well documented in other less sensational sources. Have you read Norman Davies on this - he doesn't flinch from describing the horrors, however he writes in a sensitive way. Anne Appelbaum's book on the Gulag is good too.

You don't need a website with 'leaks' to confirm that. The Red Army and the SS/Wermacht's crimes in Poland are very well documented.

That's good. You shouldn't worry about this.


If you don't have a Polish passport. nobody would expect you to show one. When they scan your passport on the database, it shows quite a few things (air journeys you've made in the past 2 years, online hotel bookings and a few other things). It doesn't show passports that you don't have.
