Sumario:We analyze what are the reasons that university students “first generation” of a university founded only 4 years ago, when invoked in support of the decision to “go”, to “continue” and to “leave” their studies. Two elements are crucial to understand this process. The first is the notion of “vocation” that articulates working out with personal fulfillment. The second is the generation position of students in the paths of their families (mostly rural and urban workers) in two ways: one linked to the possibility of achieving the aspirations in terms of social mobility; the other related to the questioning of the notion of generation in terms of age homogeneity. To address the empirical evidence reconstructed during the fieldwork, we will rely on a critical reading of the Mozart of Norbert Elias.
