COLLEGE STUDENTS IN THE UNITED STATES TODAY
A. Life on US college campuses is always changing. One change these days is that there are more
foreign students than ever before, especially in certain maijors and graduate schools. There are almost half a
million foreign sutdents in colleges and universities in United States. Most of these students are studying
business and management. Almost as many are maijoring in engineering. Other practical courses –
mathematics, computer science, and some life sciences ( such as biology) are also popular maijors. Not many
foreigner students are maijoring in the humanity ( literrure, art, drama, philosophy, etc.) or the social sciences
(anthropology), psychology, and so on, probably because they don’t believe these fields offer the best job
opportunities.

B. For many years in the United States, most undergraduate students (in their first four years of college)
were 18 years old. They attended college full time, lived in a dormitory on campus, and expected many
“extras” from their colleges, not just classes. But things began to change in the 1970s and are very different
now. Today, these “traditional” students are less than one-quarter (1/4) of all college students. These days the
traditional students are maijority; they are different from traditional undergraduates in several ways. They are
older. Many attend college part-time because they have families and jobs. Most live off campus, not in dorms.
These traditional students don’t want the extras that colleges usually offer. They aren’t interested in the sports,
entertainment, religious groups, and museaums that are part of most U.S.colllleges. They want mainly good-
quality classes, day or night, at a low cost. They also hope for easy parking, short resgistration lines, and polite
service. Both time and money are important to them.
C. Psychological tests reflect different learning styles in this new student population, too. Each person
has a certain learning style, and about 60% of the new students these days prefer a sensing style. This means
that they are very practical. They prefer a practice-to-theory method of learning – experience first and idea
after that. They often have difficulty with reading anf writing and are unsure of themselves. Moat of these
students are attending colleges because they want to have a good job and make a lot of money.
D. In another way, also, students these days are different from students in the past. In the 1960s and
1970s, many s tudents demonstrated against the government and hoped to make big changes in society. In the

1980s, most students were interested only in their studies and future jobs. Today, students seem to be a
combination of the two. They want to make good money when they graduate, but they are also interested in
helping society. Many students today are volunteering in the community. They are working to help people,
without payment. For example, they tutor (teach privately) children in trouble, or they work with organizations
for homeless people. In these ways, they hope to make changes in society.
