The big lie:

A college professor and director writes in a book about colleges Tormento (Development) a number of things that are not entirely certain, but it is what is preached in Opus Dei, although the opposite is practiced. Speaking about the creation of these schools said they "want, above all, provide their children and children of other high quality education" (...) "to be of a quality education must be integral, consistent and efficient. (...) Effective 3rd Education. The efficiency is sought can not be the exclusive academic excellence, as it is schools in families where no form is intended solely to an intellectual elite. It works with parents to try to get the best possible performance from each of their children. The goal is not the highlight of all: it would advance would lead to failure and frustration for most students with more modest intellects. The goal is another. What is proposed is that students achieve are happy kids, happy kids, happy people: people who learn to know, to accept, not to compare themselves to others, and perform to their maximum potential. "

Surely the parents will read this and think, how wonderful!

But parents minimally intelligent, and not under the network of Opus Dei, and talk to their children about EVERYTHING you will realize that what happens in these schools is just the opposite.

Competitiveness in these colleges is basic. A premium (psychologically) for the best, you alaga, he admires. It marginalizes those who fail, not even invited to the clubs, nurseries of future Fellows (who fortunately!). They are annoying, not interest. In my opinion and seeing how badly it went by they were suspending my class grow in this marginalization has to marcarte for life.

Few people can be happy when you are in a school without people of the opposite sex, as no more than preparing to live in a "normal" like the one on the street. You're missing something, like having a noviete college, or thinking: "I like this or that" or simply the act of making bands of boys against girls ... not ... what everybody ...

Happy people ... in those schools the "comparison" is a fact. What is your father's car, where you spend the summer where clothing purchases ... such questions are common. And at school it looks good ... (asi poverty preach the opus dei, taking their children to these schools ...). POVERTY NOT TALK, PLEASE.

I said, Opus Dei is a big lie

Hi: work for 7 years in a rural area of my country, which abounds poor people ... I'm the numerary ... haciwendo currently still work in this area and others say I never did, nor did I see any kind of discrimination ... I personally have helped college girls whether the Work or other, to study and get good grades, is more: the best studied with them is not easy study ... topics of conversation are those of any girl her age ... in my country it is unusual that they are attending schools in the Work must whistle, that absurd! rather honking from other schools ... recently there was a reunion of young mothers, women who had been in San Rafael in his youth, club partner when they were little ... Well, what mortal in the meeting passed, of which only some are supernumerary the rest not, but want much to Work ... but I can tell you to explain your point of view that is totally one-sided ...
greetings

I told him on another issue, but I worked many years in a college of the work (and I have a lot of money, love that I made the contributions). I was the Board of Directors of that school, and attended supernumerary Coexistence of working in schools ... and the main goal was "to train young Christians ... they understand the spirit of home." Do not tell me to me that schools do not care opus getting vocations!! (not just Fellows / as, according to the sex of the college, also with teachers and parents .... already said the "great saint", the first thing the parents, then teachers and finally the students, because if teachers and parents work together ... we have the best chance of success (not exact words, but the idea is)
Ah! I write to my mail, because it does not work. I'll open another and notice them.....

Invitada numeraria:

You say that colleges work there is no discrimination.

Then in college where I studied had two shifts: the morning and afternoon.

In the morning the children were in uniform, came from families with social standing and economic resources, the teachers were of the works were tenured, and children were invited to go to clubs where the teachers were tenured.

In the afternoon shift, however, at first the students were not in uniform (later changed), came from the outskirts of the city, teachers who were of the work were added, and inviting them to go to clubs aggregates.

This is a fact, not opinion.

If the afternoon session the Work intended to do "social work", would it not have been more logical to develop a scholarship program, rather than separating children by social class?

That, regardless of the discrimination observed in the same shift, between students who went to clubs and those without.

cabernet: in my apis is common to distinguish two-shift school day, evening. On the day the monthly pension is higher, in the night shift is minimal and the board is for people who have limited financial resources, so it helps everyone equally, classes and attention is the same for two shifts. This applies also to the schools on the agenda. I see no discrimination in this approach.
Shame you have the wrong idea or the facts have given rise to misinterpretation of them. Adios
