It is undeniable that recent years have witnessed a significant change in the number of part-time students. As is accurately presented in the chart, the number of college students doing part-time jobs is rising steadily from freshmen to seniors, ranging from 67.77% to 88.24%. Additionally, it goes without saying that more and more college students choose to engage in outside programs recently.
There are several reasons accounting for this phenomenon. For the part of students themselves, they think that it is necessary for them to put what they have learned into practice to adapt to the fast changing society. On the other hand, from the perspective of the universities, they encourage their students to do part-time jobs in the hope that college students would broaden their view and enhance their abilities. Therefore, more students do part-time jobs during the vacations or in their spare time.
Anyway, in my point of view, it is difficult to keep the balance between my study and part-time jobs. If you are able to reasonably manage the time and secure a part-time position in afield related to your studies or interests, the job is certain to yield a positive impact.
