Abstract
This paper intends to study the formal academic training and
learning system which is followed by secondary education and is
referred as higher education. Higher education influences
individuals both socially and politically,the socio-political
dynamics of education also impact society at large. It is evident
from the history that students have played very significant role in
various political activities. Students have served as torch bearers
of Pakistan movement and remained politically active even after
independence. Higher education has also social dynamics as
education empowers people in terms of thinking and questioning
social circumstances. It makes them aware of their rights and
obligation. Education enables people to differentiate between right
and wrong. As a result of all this they become socially aware and
have some perspective of their own about the present and
emerging circumstances. It suggests that the government should
work to make higher education accessible for all the people of the
country. This will not only make them better human beings but
also inculcate values of a responsible citizen which would be
beneficial for the country.
