My View on Cohabitation of University Student It is inevitable to touch upon the occurance of cohabitation on campus. In other countries, it is a privacy that an adult chose whom to live with, and others have no saying. While in China, it is disapproval that unmarried couples live together, and most universities have regulations against students’ cohabitation. But the question remains how rational and effective are those rules. 大学生同居的话题是无法避免的。在其他国家，成年人选择和谁同居是个人隐私，其他人无权干涉。而在中国，未婚同居受到反对，许多大学明文规定不允许学生同居。但问题是这种规定合理有效么？ It is astonishingly easy to find university who will say, in private, that they are cohabiting with an opposite sex. Most say that they know somebody else who does. Because they contend that they are old enough to make such a significant decision, and that they have their right to choose their life style, they sincerely hope that the public abandon biased views against their practice. It is undeniably true that they have done nothing wrong on the part of others. Consequently it is paradoxical to label them as “wrong-doers”. 大学生私下的和异性同居出奇的多。他们很多都说他们认识的某人也是这么做的。因为他们认为他们已经够大做这种重大的决定了，他们有权利选择自己的生活方式，他们真诚地希望公众对他们的这种行为摒除成见。无可否认的是他们在其他方面完全没有做错。因此把他们贴上“做错事的人”的标签是荒谬的。 Some people afraid that cohabitation of university students may pose negative effect to their academic growth. Yet academic growth is by and large determined by one’s intelligence, motivation and environmental factors. If cohabitation can do little with intelligence, it is definitely facilitative to their motivation because they expect to shine at their schoolwork before their partner, which in turn contributes to their future development. Another worry is that university students are too young to wrestle with problems arising from cohabitation. Such worry is groundless when you realize that university students are all functioning as adults by legal standard and that there is no consensus when one is fully mature to grapple with cohabitation headaches. That depends on the individual. 有些人害怕大学生同居会对他们的学业有不利的影响。然而学业很大部分是取决于一个人的智力，动力和环境因素的。如果同居对他们的智力没啥影响，那么绝对的能够影响他们的动力，因为他们都想在伴侣前炫耀自己的学业，这会对他们未来的发展有贡献的。另一个担忧就是大学生大年轻很难处理同居中出现的问题。这种担忧是毫无根据的，当你意识到大学生已经完全成长到成年水平，他们能够完全成熟的去处理头疼的同居问题。这取决于个人。 In short, we have little to lose if we officially recognize cohabitation of university students. By refusing to do that, it will usher in more inconvenience and confrontation. 总而言之，我们赞同大学生同居是没什么损失的。如果不这么做，这只会引起更多的不便和抗议。
