摘 要: 从"物的消费"过渡到"符号消费"是消费社会最明显的特征。在消费符号化的当下社会,高等教育消费也被裹挟进去而具有符号化的特征。这种消费主义加剧了消费者的异化倾向,人们为了追求隐藏在教育背后的身份、地位等象征符号走进校园,而很少去关心教育的本质意义和内在价值,从而成为单向度的人,这样的教育离人的全面发展越来越远。另外,高等教育消费符号特征的间接性、隐形性意味着一个人在高等教育上进行消费所希冀的结果不是立竿见影的。因此,在高等教育消费的过程中,如果过分看中它的隐性符号意义,就会诱发过分的幻想,从而在现实中难以实现当初的预期,这也是大学生就业难的重要原因。 It is the most obvious feature of consumption society to transfer from "material consumption'to"symbol consumption". In the current society of consumption symbolization, the higher-education consumption is also put in with the symbolized character. Such consumerism intensify the alienation tendency of consumers, people enter college in order to pursue the symbols of identity and status behind education but rarely are concerned about the intrinsic significance and value of education nature, so they are becoming one-dimensional person and far away from the overall development of a person. In addition, the indirect and stealthy nature of symbolic characteristics of higher-education consumption means that the desired results of a person's consumption in higher education are not an immediate benefit. Therefore, in process of higher-education consumption, excessive fantasy can be induced by paying excessive attention to hidden symbolic meaning so as to make it difficult to achieve the original expectations in reality, which is an important reason for difficult employment of university graduates.
