RIP Courage Rutsate college in Harare called Harare Institute of Public Health (HIPH), to be specific.

 Please post for me and Hide ID.

 

I’d like to put the spotlight on a certain college in Harare called Harare Institute of Public Health (HIPH), to be specific.

 

 

 

 

A tragic incident occurred a week ago, were a female student enrolled at this public college committed suicid€ due to a balance due on her tuition fees.

 

I have a child who enrolled at the same college in February. Prior to enrollment the college tells you all the requirements and tuition payment terms, etc. If you can't pay the whole tuition at once, you can pay 60% upon enrollment (February), then 20% end March and the final 20% end April. They further assure you that no student will be turned away due to outstanding tuition fees (I was told this in person upon enrolling my child), not knowing that it's just a tactic to get you to enrol with them!

 

Unfortunately the deceas€d had a 20% balance for the semester due by April. On the 15th of April she and a large number of students were denied access and turned away due to balances. This was on the 15th, meanwhile they have said fees are to be paid by the end of the month.

 

It seems at that time the parents/guardians could not raise the amount required for her to return to college. Thus leading to the tragic incident where the student decided to €nd her lif€. She was buri€d over the weekend.

 

 

 

 

This could have been avoided. What are the priorities of this college? Yes, we know that most of these colleges are money-making ventures, but at whose expense? It’s unfortunate that this particular college seems to be more interested in demanding money at the expense of quality education, and charging exorbitant amounts for poor quality student materials.

 

Such a young promising life cut short because of a money-centered institution!

 

RIP Courage Rutsate ? ? ?

Car Accident Settlement: How Insurance Companies Calculate Your Claim

A car accident settlement is based on several factors, including injury severity, medical bills, lost income, fault, insurance limits, and long-term effects. Insurance companies do not simply pay what you ask for. They review records and look for ways to reduce the claim.

Medical treatment is one of the biggest parts of a settlement. Emergency room visits, surgery, physical therapy, medication, and follow-up care can all affect the value. If your injury requires future treatment, that should also be considered.

Lost wages matter too. If the accident caused you to miss work, you may claim lost income. If your injuries reduce your ability to work in the future, the claim may include loss of earning capacity.

Pain and suffering can also be included. This covers physical pain, emotional distress, sleep problems, reduced mobility, and loss of enjoyment of life.

Insurance companies may try to blame you for part of the crash. If they prove you were partly at fault, your compensation may be reduced depending on state law.

A car accident attorney can help gather evidence, document damages, and negotiate for a fair settlement.

Before signing anything, make sure the settlement covers your current and future losses. Once the case is settled, it is usually final.

The Rise of Entrepreneurship in the Digital Economy

Entrepreneurship has become one of the most powerful drivers of economic growth and innovation in the digital era. Advances in internet technology, social media, and e-commerce platforms have made it easier for individuals to start businesses and reach global audiences with relatively low startup costs.

Digital entrepreneurs are building businesses in areas such as online retail, content creation, software development, digital marketing, and financial technology. Social media platforms allow entrepreneurs to promote products, connect with customers, and build personal brands more effectively than traditional advertising methods.

One major advantage of digital entrepreneurship is flexibility. Business owners can operate remotely, manage online stores, and collaborate with international clients from virtually anywhere with internet access. Mobile banking and digital payment systems have also simplified financial transactions for small businesses and startups.

However, entrepreneurship also involves significant risks and challenges. Competition in online markets can be intense, and many startups struggle with funding, marketing, and long-term sustainability. Successful entrepreneurs often require strong communication skills, financial planning abilities, and adaptability to changing market trends.

Governments and educational institutions are increasingly supporting entrepreneurship through business development programs, startup funding initiatives, and technology education. Experts believe entrepreneurship will continue playing a major role in economic development, job creation, and technological innovation worldwide.
