Reasons for the lack of goals of contemporary college students
The main reason for the lack of goals of contemporary college students is the value orientation of higher education. Specifically, college students' concept of choosing jobs needs to be changed, the expectations of society and families need to be accommodated, and the supply of higher education needs to be reformed.

First of all, college students should have a correct outlook on job selection.

For some time, some college students have experienced the entanglement and pain of "choosing" and "being chosen" and "applying for and being rejected" because of man of great talent's employment concept. Some people don't want to start at the grassroots level, some people escape from the harsh environment, some people have no goals in life, and some people stay at home and become "old-timers". This behavior has become a social criticism.

With the improvement and enrichment of material life, some college students who have been imprisoned at home and school for many years lack hard training, psychological preparation and ability reserve in the face of difficulties and hardships. In fact, the lack of knowledge and ability is not terrible. The most terrible thing is listlessness and no goal.

Secondly, society should respect college students' career choices.

The group most concerned about the employment of college students is the parents of students. "Looking forward to the success of children" and "looking forward to the success of daughters" are still the greatest expectations of many parents for higher education. Some parents worry that their children will suffer if they send express delivery. On the other hand, if children are willing to start with basic work, should they be praised and encouraged?

As the saying goes, "you have to suffer to be a master." If we can do a good job of "grounding gas" at this time, we may stand still in the future. The society should also provide a more inclusive system and public opinion environment for other college students. In terms of employment orientation, the phenomenon of "high education consumption" in some employing departments out of face has also played a role in fueling the situation.

With the development of society, college students should not and cannot be turned away from higher-level jobs, but it is gradually becoming the norm for highly educated college students to engage in some low-end jobs and ordinary occupations, so there is no need to make a fuss. The so-called "360 lines, each line is the best", that is, to serve the people and contribute to society in any post, it is possible to make contributions.

Third, colleges and universities should provide support for the diversified development of college students.

Aristotle once said: The ultimate value of life lies in the ability of awakening and thinking, not just in survival. Reflecting on our education, training under the requirements of standardization and unification, and "shaping" so-called talents according to the requirements of standardization, the result is that students are "malnourished" or "malabsorption", their potentials and specialties are buried, and their hobbies are restricted.

At present, some colleges and universities pay attention to employment skills education, but ignore lifelong literacy education. A lot of education is "teaching" rather than "educating people". There is still a big market for "arrogant" education, and "student-oriented" is only verbal.

In fact, it is not necessarily a bad thing that college students do not match the training target positions. Because for some college students, university study is not related to their interests, many of them are "admitted" by majors, and some people find that their majors do not correspond to their interests or are not suitable for them after entering the university.

University study is also a kind of life experience, which is not only a utilitarian pursuit of learning, but also a non-utilitarian enjoyment of life.

American psychologist James Roland Angel said: "The main purpose of education is not to teach you to earn bread, but to make every bite of bread sweet." In this regard, university education should return to the educational essence of "making the educated become themselves", pay attention to cultivating students' sustainable development ability in their career and lifelong development, and make them find a correct position.

It is a gratifying phenomenon that college students become "courier brothers", which shows that some college students' employment concepts have begun to change. I hope more college students like "courier brother" are active in different stages of society and make their own contributions to promoting social harmony and economic development.
