    Occupy Wall Street’s concept spread to college campus throughout the US. Campus nationwide personalized and localized their protest that lent an immediate and urgent cry to their causes.

    Occupy Wall Street was a major occurrence, its impact has echoed throughout the nation and coincidentally has reached to the University of Northern California thus giving Ms. Ward motivation to start a change.

    Ms. Hoffman said “We’re just going to yell and scream and hold up signs and nothing’s going to change. But you’ve got an entire generation of people that realize something is wrong and something has to change because the system is wrong. There’s more of us than there are of them.” This is basically the summary of the occupy wall street movement since the movement is about unifying the young generation to take down few evil people who have too much power.

    Occupy Wall Street has influenced students nationwide. They feel that protesting is necessary especially when everything including jobs are changing and that action needs to be taken.

    The Occupy Wall Street movement inspired other regions to mirror similar movements across the country. Students in different schools creating protests have an understanding of how this movement will affect them but the solution they seek isn’t something that is instantly resolved.

    The issues with the Occupy Wall Street were deeply felt across universities, ranging from various communities in the U.S. to across the world. It promotes students and professors to make a change in the place they’re living in.

    Ashley Ward is ecstatic to hear about the Occupy Wall Street movement, in lower Manhattan. She and a friend use posters, online website, and emails to bring Occupy to Humboldt State University. The movement began in Manhattan, but soon students, nationwide, were bringing it to their schools. We have a generation of people who realize that something is wrong and something has to be done to change.

    Occupy Wall St.,a movement that started in New York soon grew into an international movement. It help the current generation realize that there is something wrong with the system of things. Although the movement was short lived the message of Occupy Wall St. spread far.

    This is like the Domino Theory taking place as theorized during WWII. When one movement starts in on region, it will spread throughout the region until the whole world is involved. The spark lit by the youth in New York led to an emotional outbreak among the younger generation of other areas feeding into the fires of the upheaval of corruption.

    The initiation of the Occupy Wall Street movement has led colleges and universities nationwide to join in the movement and become active participants in protesting their governments system. Their main objection is that the economic state is a direct cause of why colleges are under-financed and why classroom sizes are expanding. The movement is a sign, as Ms.Hoffman says, that there is an “an entire generation of people that realize something is wrong and something has to change because the system is wrong.”

    Occupy Wall Street allowed a chance for college students and company to voice their concerns about their debts and to protest the system that didn’t seem to help them at all. The economy was worsening, college graduates couldn’t find jobs, and graduates and students still had large student loans to pay off. Therefore, Ericka Hoffman, a student still attending university, decided to try as hard as she could with others who were willing to try with her to change the corrupted system.

    Occupy Wall Street has led to a catastrophic rise of student activism concerning problems such as policies in campus, tuition policy and so on. The rise of Wall Street has caused many other problems across universities, and people have started to do a mass protest. Although the nationwide student activism can’t make an immediate change, they just keep on protesting for the better future of an entire generation, which is facing potential difficulties due to the rise of Wall Street.

    Occupy Wall Street has become a national issue, reaching as far as colleges and universities since it effects the job market system for graduating students.

    The influence of Occupy Wall Street has grown to national level. People gather together to protest and demand for changes. The depressed economy and the rise of wall street affect so many people.

    College students mimicked the Occupy Wall Street movement by conducting their own protests and inciting in personal affairs on campuses. Outsiders joined students on several occasions. Faculty on campuses of participating students have, for the most part, supported the influential tide.
