In America, college is seen as a time of freedom, you're no longer living under your parents, etc. whereas Japanese college is well, studystudystudy. Therefore the sense of freedom is associated with high school in Japanese society hence why many look back to it with nostalgia and why high school settings are popular. At least that's what I hear, I'm no expert. I'd say you're largely correct in that the US has a very unique culture surrounding college and universities that is not found (as often) in other countries. Campus life such as the dude throwing the frisbee, the girl studying on a blanket under the tree, the fraternity parties, etc. are mainly a US thing. Go to South America, Asia, Africa, and even Europe in many places and universities don't have as strong of a "student life" focus. It's mostly just academics and studies. Though I have seen a few universities in some European countries slant more in that direction to attract top US talent but it's still not a majority. --- Congratulations!
