　　My View on Spending Craze DuringGraduation

　　In recent years, there is a growing concern forthe spending craze during graduation. Thefarewelldinners, which once symbolized a celebration of thefour-year friendship and the bitterness of pending departure, pose a gigantic financial burdenon the graduates.

　　A number of factors can account for such phenomenon, but the following might be thecritical ones. Firstly, it’s an undeniable truth that today’s college students tend to spendmuch more money than before. What’s more, the farewell dinners are held in the name ofmore and more social groups, such as classes, college societies, dormitories and etc.

　　In my view, the problem mentioned above has become increasingly severe, so greatconcern is deserved and effective measures are called for. To begin with, it is essential thatthe school should attach more importance to teaching the concept of thrift. Secondly,students should enhance their awareness that money never stands for affection. Only withthese measures taken, I’m convinced, can the craze of spending during graduation be eased.
