My View on Spending Craze During Graduatio
In recent years, there is a growing concern for the spending craze during
graduation. Thefarewell dinners, which once symbolized a celebration of the
four-year friendship and the bitterness of pending departure, pose a gigantic
financial burden on the graduates.
A number of factors can account for such phenomenon, but the following
might be the critical ones. Firstly, it’s an undeniable truth that today’s
college students tend to spend much more money than before. What’s more, the
farewell dinners are held in the name of more and more social groups, such as
classes, college societies, dormitories and etc.
In my view, the problem mentioned above has become increasingly severe, so
great concern is deserved and effective measures are called for. To begin with,
it is essential that the school should attach more importance to teaching the
concept of thrift. Secondly, students should enhance their awareness that money
never stands for affection. Only with these measures taken, I’m convinced, can
the craze of spending during graduation be eased. |
