It would be interesting to discover how many young people go to university without any clear idea of what they are going to do afterwards. If one considers the enormous variety of courses【62】 it is not hard to see how difficult it is for a student to select the course most suited to his【63】and abilities. If a student goes to university to acquire a broader【64】of life, to enlarge his ideas and to learn to think for himself, he will【65】benefit. Schools often have too【66】an atmosphere, with its time tables and disciplines, to allow him much time for independent【67】of the work he is asked to do. Most students would, I believe, Profit by a year of such exploration of different academic studies, especially those 'all rounders'【68】no particular interest. They should have longer time to decide in what subject they want to take their degrees, so that in later life, they do not look【69】and say, 'I should like to have been an archaeologist. If I hadn't taken a degree in Modern Languages, I shouldn't have ended up as a(n) interpreter.【70】it's too late now. I couldn't go back and begin all over again. ' There is, of course,【71】side to the question of how to make the【72】use of one's time at university. This is the case of the student who【73】in a particular branch of learning. He is immediately accepted by the university of his【74】, and spends his three or four years becoming a specialist, emerging with a firstclass Honour Degree and very【75】knowledge of what the rest of the world is all about. It【76】becomes more and more important that, if students are not to waste their【77】, there will have to be much more【78】information about courses and more advice.【79】in this way can we be sure that we are not to have, on the one hand, a band of specialists【80】of anything outside of their own subject, and on the other hand, an ever increasing number of graduates qualified【81】subjects for which there is little or no demand in the working world.
