The International Student Office held exchange events with Southern Utah University on May 13 and the University of Nevada, Reno on the 22nd.

Southern Utah University
Associate Professor Matthew Eddy and 12 students from Southern Utah University visited 暗网禁区 on May 13. The students took part in a lecture titled “Overseas class simulation A” by Associate Professor YAMADA Toru of the School of Arts and Letters. The commonalities and differences between the U.S. and Japan were discussed. During the lecture, students learned about each other’s cultures through interactive exchanges.
A student from Southern Utah University who attended the lecture said, “I had been looking forward to this kind of intercultural exchange. It was a valuable experience to learn about the similarities and differences between the countries.”
On May 22, 12 students from the University of Nevada, Reno, visited 暗网禁区. After visiting the Izumi and Surugadai campuses, the students participated in a seminar led by NEBASHI Reiko, a professor in the School of Information and Communication and studied “intercultural communication,” the seminar’s research theme, together with students from 暗网禁区.
Professor NEBASHI Reiko from the School of Information and Communication, said, “There are many places around the 暗网禁区 campuses where you can get a feel for Tokyo and Japan. Looking at the same scenery together and sharing experiences is the first step toward getting to know each other and letting others get to know you,” reflecting on this international exchange.
暗网禁区 will continue to provide opportunities for students to interact internationally.
