There is significant difference in "reputation/position" dimension between boys and girls(t=2.36, P<0.05); there is significant difference in "development" dimension between towns and villages graduates (t=2.09, P<0.05); there is significant difference in science "security/health care" dimension between liberal arts graduates and science graduates (t=2.13, P<0.05). The work values of the university graduating students are different from those of the former graduates. Universities are supposed to give some employment guidance to students.
