摘要

由于 COVID-19 大流行,2020 学年出现了严重的混乱。过渡到远程教学和学生离开校园导致压力、焦虑、抑郁和对学生未来的不确定性增加。美国许多教育机构不得不取消或修改毕业典礼,以应对社会疏远的要求。对于 18-25 岁的大学新兴成人来说,失去传统的毕业典礼使他们走出校门,向成人角色和责任过渡更具挑战性。本研究基于对就读于一所私立文理学院并经历过虚拟毕业典礼的 38 名 2020 届毕业生的定性调查,揭示了如果没有正式结束新兴成人和大学时代的边缘时期,许多毕业生很难感觉到自己已经准备好进入研究生院或进入成人工作角色。本研究采用生命历程的视角来审视教育经历中断所带来的影响,并将仪式的缺失与当今的新兴成人联系起来。

Craving Closure: The Challenges of a Canceled Commencement During the COVID‐19 Pandemic
As a result of the COVID‐19 pandemic, significant disruptions were experienced in the 2020 school year. Transitions to remote teaching and student dismissal from campuses contributed to higher rates of stress, anxiety, depression, and uncertainty about student futures. Many educational institutions in the U.S. had to cancel or modify commencement ceremonies in response to social distancing mandates. For emerging adults in college, those ages 18–25, the loss of a traditional graduation event made the transition out of school and into adult roles and responsibilities more challenging. This study, based on qualitative surveys of 38 graduates from the class of 2020 who attended a private liberal arts college and experienced a virtual graduation ceremony, reveals that without the formal closure on the liminal period of emerging adulthood and the college years, many graduates were struggling to feel a sense of being ready to move on to graduate school or adult working roles. The life course perspective is employed to examine the impacts of the disruptions to the educational experience and put the loss of rituals in context for emerging adults today.
