Exactly! It's so evident yet so hidden to the eyes of the admin. These norms and so called rituals we follow indeed seem like a pathway towards the recession of the creative nature of us humans. We need to act fast and aware our peers about the same, that's part of the reason why I started this blog in the first place. We need more teachers who would actually explain why and how these "laws" we are so fond of were discovered and there significance. Just simply following them won't help, we need questions to be asked and answers to be provided.
