Mother’s Opposition to Higher Education
Her Reason: If Rizal gets to learn more, the Spaniards will cut off his head.
In contrary, Paciano and Don Francisco wanted Rizal to pursue College Education.
Take note: The Bachelor of Arts degree during
Spanish times was equivalent to a high school diploma today.
