答案 University Education Outweigh Vocation Education About a decade ago when university graduates were rare, most students could easily find a good job. Now with the graduating population continuing to grow, it’s getting much harder for them to find a satisfactory job. Many people discard the old belief that university education is necessary because there is no more guarantee for good jobs, and there are people who suggest that university education should be vocation-oriented. However, in doing that, they could be making a huge mistake. Universities play a more important role than vocation education. University education, along with primary and secondary school educations, should focus on the understanding about oneself. Human beings are not just born to learn how to feed themselves, but for other more important purposes. It is sad that in our world most people are so busy sustaining a living that they can’t fully understand and enjoy this ephemeral life. We started to know the world around us and our inner selves when we were little, and this process must continue through our lifetime. Our time in college is a crucial moment because it’s a gateway into a world full of possibilities and challenges. One must be prepared, not only in his skill to survive, but also the ability to fully live bis life. Another fact about university education is that although it offers education on job-related skills in certain fields, the one who receives this education doesn’t necessarily get a job in the field. There is a very high percentage of people who change their careers in their lifetime, especially in younger years when they are still finding out about different kinds of jobs and themselves. At that time, their thoughts are immature, and they may have chosen a wrong major in college but they have the time to fix it later on. When university education is solely concerned with one’s future jobs, the disadvantage would be easily seen — there would be fewer choices in life for the college students because their knowledge is limited in a specific area. Most importantly, a person should be allowed to embrace the full extent of possibilities in life instead of being categorized in their early years. One day there will come a time when human beings have so advanced technologies that they don’t have to work to survive. Imagine then what would university education be about? Definitely not about one’s future vocation, I’d say. That day may not be today, but the idea does give us a hint of what our university education should really focus on.
