Only for graduates? 
discriminate?
I long enroll in 社会大学 dont think can join.
The Social Development Unit (SDU) was formed in January 1984 to encourage social interaction and marriage among graduate singles.[1] The impetus for the establishment of the SDU stemmed from the findings of the 1980 population census. The results showed an increasing proportion of unmarried graduate women – a trend compounded by the preference among local men for women with lower educational qualifications than themselves, while graduate women preferred better-educated men.[2] In his 1983 National Day Rally, then Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew commented on the phenomenon of well-educated women remaining single, and highlighted its implications on Singapore’s talent pool. He warned that the talent pool would be depleted unless better-educated Singaporeans married and had more children.
