Entertainment

College students in the Untied States extremely want universities to produce entertainment activities much more than Japanese college students do. Japanese students prefer to do part time jobs besides having fun with friends on campus. This is because most Japanese universities do not have dormitories, and students live off-campus. For the reasons, as soon as classes end, they go back to their residences and go out to work. Therefore, entertainment in Japanese colleges is not as needed as in American colleges.

Let's think of this way. No universities are focusing on entertainment in Japan right now. It could be a very effective tool to bring students. People love having fun. Before it becomes common, universities better start thinking about it and discussing with some organizations such as university student government and other student associations. Start a new business!

Hello, I enjoyed reading this blog entry. I wanted to say that I think you're right on about this. It seems that since Japanese students are pretty much forced to join sports or clubs in junior high and high school, they choose not to do so at university. But it would probably make for a better student experience if there were more entertainment options.
