There is a growing “swirling” trend of students alternating between 2‐ and 4‐year colleges. The non‐linear paths traveled by many community college students often take them through multiple colleges and/or through patterns of stop‐out and return. Due to the rapid growth of international students pursuing US degrees, this study identifies the demographic composition of international students and investigates their swirling patterns for what may appear as erratic paths. This manuscript includes important implications for practitioners and others at community colleges.
This paper aims to discuss the recent impact of Korean movie and TV culture on Chinese female audiences-ways they might be attracted and influenced by the Korean movie and TV culture and the reasons behind this impact. The method we used is based on a literature review, supplemented by a questionnaire survey (for reference only because of our limitations). The document resources include but are not limited to journals, academic websites, news reports, and blogs. We collect quantified data, relevant research, and the history of Korean waves to support this essay. According to the collected information, we can see that the cultural products in Korea are successfully influenced a broader market and audience's consumption. Chinese cultural industry could learn from it, thus developing our culture to achieve more economic benefits brought by culture export and extending its values on a global scale. What sets us apart is that we focus on how young people spend money on pop culture and the economic impact behind them.
