Making a difference is so important to them that 45 percent say they would take a 15 percent pay cut to work at an organization that has a social or environmental influence, and 58 percent say they would take a pay cut to work for an organization whose values are the same as their own. One reason for the emphasis(強調(diào)) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to realworld problems. Students are used to discussing important social issues(問題) with their friends and professors, and doing something about them in class or through volunteer activities.
