Nowadays, it is common knowledge that university students are becoming busier than ever. Some people think that despite this, students should participate in other activities aside from only studying. I strongly agree with this statement.

However, I do understand why university students should spend time studying. Firstly, working part-time jobs or participating in extracurricular activities can distract them from their studies. These activities sound more attractive than studying because there are rewards for them, such as money, connections, or friends. As a result, there have been cases where students eventually fail classes because of these activities. Another reason is that universities often by . If students allocate too much time to , they would barely have time to squeeze a group meeting into their schedule, resulting in .

Moreover, by participating in extracurricular activities, students can have a better understanding of what is going on in society. For example, many universities have that discuss both international and domestic . Students can gain crucial insights into society through these.

In conclusion, although I understand that many students cannot afford to participate in other activities aside from studying, I strongly believe that participation in extracurricular activities or working is essential for their .
