How do you evaluate the recent situation of university students?

1)Define recent "1 day" "1 week" "1 year" "10 years".

2)Univesity students have 3 main issues broadly speaking imho.

  2a.Future Prospects - What are the trends in the Job Market/economy?

  2b.Present Well-being - Are they studying in a healthy environment?

  2c.Past Experiences - Are they well adjusted/groomed for university life?

My hypothesis is that any missing links might cause a noticable decline in sociological and psychological evaluation of a "indiviual student" .

For the general student population,You can find literature from Experts who are far more competent than me since various other variables might also be linked which I am not aware of.

What I mean is, what are the students' attitudes in life? What do they want to do? What don't they want to do?

Parent of university student here, so n=1

They want approximately what everyone wants at that age: meaningful experiences, meaningful work, somewhere affordable and safe to live, a functioning future, etc. Where they differ is in their confidence that they'll ever attain any of those things.

Many students are not college-ready. They don't want to read, write, or follow instructions.

Too broad of a question. What do you mean by "recent situation"?

Their state of mind and attitude. Whatever comes to your mind.

Talking about my country, it seems more young people prefer to be an influencer than a engineer, in the end most of them can’t become an influencer and so they also don’t become engineers

Perfectly rational when becoming an "influencer" is an easier decision to make with little/no downside if it doesn't work out, where as becoming an engineer requires a significant time and money (tuition fees) investment for something that's not actually all that well rewarded outside of a very specific niche (_software_ engineering) in the US.
