However , now they are becoming an _41_period of adolescence , during which many of todays students are not shouldered with adult _42_.In the past two decades , continued connections with and _43_on family , thanks to cell phones , email and social media , have increased significantly . Some parents go so far as to help with coursework . Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy ,universities have _44_to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home. To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility , college need to be a time of _45_and experimentation . This process involves “trying on” new ways of thinking about oneself both intellectually and personally ._46_we should provide “safe spaces” within colleges , we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views._47_ growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questioning . Learning to deal with the _48_world is equally important . Because a college community （群体） differs from the family , many students will struggle to find a sense of _49_. If students rely on administrations to _50_their social behavior and thinking pattern ,they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity ,within a larger and complex community . _51_,the tendency for universities to monitor and _52_student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders . If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined (规定)， the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize many actually be _53_. It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out , particularly when there are reasons to do so . Our generation once joined hands and stood from at times of national emergence . What is lacking today is the _54_between desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world.
