Every year in Germany, 80,000 young people leave school without any kind of school leaving certificate, and they very often then wind up among the long-term unemployed.<\/p>\n Now, attending kindergarten is no assurance of receiving a Harvard degree in later life, but the Bertelsmann Foundation figures that for children from social strata where education is of little importance the probability that they will eventually attend a university prep secondary school increases by sixty percent if they have been in some kind of day care group or kindergarten.<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: Ruehle, Alex, \u201eDie Zukunft entscheidet sich im Kindergarten\u201c, sueddeutsche.de, 14 July 2010.<\/p>\n *In the area of engineering\/technology and computer sciences, according to the Academic Ranking of World Universities compiled by Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the Technical University of Munich, officially recognized by the German government as an \u201celite university,\u201d is ranked with twenty-two other universities at 78 or below, well beneath such institutions as the Technical University of Denmark.
