Universities should require every student to take a variety of courses outside the student's field of study.
Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the claim. In developing and supporting your position, be sure to address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to challenge your position.

观点：作者的观点是好的，但不是对所有的学生都适用
首先，鼓励学生多参加本专业以外的不同课程的学习对学生是有帮助的，比如：（1）可以开阔学生的眼界，促进学生综合素质的提高；（2）可以促进学科交叉，促进新领域的探索。但是这并不意味着每个学生都必须参加课外学习。
但是，通过参加本专业以外课程的学习来推动本专业的学习并不是普适的，有许多专业性很强的学科（如：astronomy），和其他学科的结合并不是很紧密，因此这项学科的学生参加课外学习意义不大。
此外，有些学科，如medicine，课程十分繁重，参加课外学习会占用一部分本专业的学习时间，如果处理不当，会降低本专业的学习质量和效率，有可能在一定程度上削弱本专业的学习，从而产生相反的结果。此外，课外学习会进一步加重学生的课业负担，导致他们缺少娱乐和歇息的时间，导致精神问题多发。
总而言之，我同意大学要求每一个学生参加课外学习的做法，这并不是对每个学生的成长都是有帮助的。我想应该由学生自己决定是否参加课外学习，以及参加什么课外学习。
With the development of technology and science, more and more fields are tightly connected together, so that taking a variety of courses outside the student's field of study is good for students to enhance their education. But unfortunately, this strategy is not universal applicable to all students in University.
First of all, encouraging students to take part in a variety of courses outside the student's field is sometimes useful. On one hand, it can broad the students' ken and promote the comprehensive capability of them. This is especially valuable for someone who wants to be an academic researcher in the future. On the other hand, it can also accelerate the fusion of different fields and then some tremendous discovery could be made with the cooperation from several disciplines.
However, taking a variety of courses outside the student's field does not always work for every student. Some special disciplines, such as astronomy, are particularly different from others, so little connection could be made among them. If students' in these fields are forced to take other courses outside this field, they may get little help to improve their professional study. Imaging a student of astronomy joining a literature writing course to learn how to evaluate traditional literature works of China, what is the benefit of this course for the student’s major.
Furthermore, some disciplines, such as medicine, have a lot of tasks for their students to finish. Duo to this reason, they may have little time to spend on other courses outside their major. Even though, if some mandatory policy is approved to force student to obey, some negative influence on their major study could be generated. Their study quality and productivity will decrease, which is opposite to the author's original goal. This kind of time wasting activities should be avoided to let students have enough time focusing on their favorite major field. Meanwhile, the additional course study outside their major will absolutely make students much more tired than before, which can highly probable cause serious psychological problems of young adults.
In conclusion, while taking a variety of courses outside the student's field can help student to integrate their synthesized knowledge framework and let them have broader eye sight, this suggestion is not useful and effective for all the students in any fields. So mandatory policy made by the University is not plausible and it is better to let students make decision by themselves according to their favor and study situation. |
