They already work. You forgot to tell about academicians, never mind.

The word "бесплатный" literally is "unpaid", if you passed the entering contest, worked off 2 years you don't pay. The higher education is not mandatory there.
There are very few students in Belarus who want to pass their career assignment after the university. The majority is against but they have to.

It's quite possible to find a job after the university if you're not a looser. It's better to gain experience and earn money than to work like a slave almost for nothing, isn't it?
Career assignment in Belarus is a forced labour. It's not the same as in the USA.

You are the only person here who supports lukashenko's ideology concerning education. Don't forget that the topic is presidential elections in Belarus and not education (neither in Belarus nor in the USA).
