Why not encourage students to experiment for themselves? Try a summer internship or volunteering or taking a class on a topic where they could help solve one of the world’s top problems, as well as exploring areas they’ve been drawn to since childhood, and keep an open mind as they explore.
I think a lot of people will find it really satisfying to see how they can help people, but some people might genuinely be happier working on something they’ve been interested in since childhood, and we shouldn’t try to deceive those people!

This is a good option. I hadn’t really considered this. And I agree that we definitely shouldn’t try to deceive anyone.
