Lee 李中清 published a new article in 《近代史研究》(Modern Chinese History Studies) on the geographic origins of university students during the Republic of China using the CUSD-ROC, CUSD-OS, and CPOD-UE databases. Here is the abstract: 民国大学生量化数据库收录有33所高校近12万学生个人层面的多维度信息，其地理信息包括籍贯、家庭住址、高中驻地和大学驻地四类。借助量化分析方法，对这四类信息进行分别计算和连接比较，能够动态呈现民国大学生群体地理来源的模式、特征和变迁。研究表明，清代科举体制下较均衡的全国性统一人才供给机制在民国时期被彻底打破，大学生的地理来源高度集中于东南地区和中心城市，人才供给规模省际差异显著。同时，在校大学生明显向中心城市集中，这一趋势伴随求学历程不断强化。民国不同地区人口接受新式教育的广度和层次差别甚大，这对国家近代化的进程与特征具有重要影响。 Full reference: Chen Liang 梁晨, Bamboo Y.
