On Wednesday, October 23, CWRU students from Japanese classes participated in a cultural exchange meeting with Japanese exchange students from Kindai University. Over 40 students joined the event, where they practiced their Japanese skills while helping the exchange students improve their English through conversations in both languages. Everyone enjoyed the experience, along with free pizza and drinks. Many students expressed their joy at meeting new friends and look forward to nurturing these friendships throughout the school year. We hope to organize another cultural exchange meeting for students in the Japanese program in the spring semester!
