Although cultures are becoming more homogeneous, there are still lots of difference. Different country has different history. As a result, the cultures are diversity in the world. Until now, I found a lots of difference between the ife in US and the life in China.
We all have McDonalds' and Subway, but the menus are different. The taste of soft drink here is a little strange for me. I can understand what teachers and classmates are saying in the classes, but it's difficult for me to understand why they are laughing. When they talked about the social network, the only two networks I'm familiar with are Facebook and Twitter. The social network in China is completely different. It's hard for me to find something I need in Walmart. My roommate likes cheese, butter and chocolate for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I prefer to fruit and vagetabes.
Purdue is a large community. It has thousands of students come from the whole world. They all have unique culture. I'd like to experience the culture diversity on campus and find the distinct culture of Purdue.
I find your opinion of culture to be homogenous but different at the same time very interesting but also understandable. News and information is connecting the world and is giving the allusion that the world is small and the same. But at the same, all regions are very different and have a diverse range of backgrounds, which will never make culture truly homogenous.
