  • FY2016 Results of Accreditation
    Results of Accreditations Performed by the Japan University Accreditation Association July 31, 2017 Introduction In 2002, the Certified Evaluation and Accreditation System was introduced in Japan (enforced in 2004), obligating all higher education institutions (universities, junior colleges and technical colleges) to undergo an evaluation once every 7 years, and all professional graduate schools to undergo an evaluation once every 5 years as well. In each case, the evaluating agency certified by the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) conducts the evaluation process, comprehensively assessing the level of education, and other areas. Since its establishment in 1947, the Japan University Accreditation Association (JUAA) has played a significant role in assuring the quality of higher education. On August 31, 2004, the JUAA was authorized by the Minister of MEXT as the first Certified Evaluation and Accreditation Agency for universities. Authorization for its Certified Evaluation and Accreditation later expanded to several other fields. The JUAA currently performs Certified Evaluation and Accreditation in 8 fields (university, junior college, law school, professional graduate business school, professional graduate public policy school, professional graduate school of public health, professional graduate school of intellectual property studies, and professional graduate school of global communications) and the accreditation for school of veterinary medicine. JUAA has just finalized the results of accreditations for FY 2016 as follows. FY 2016 University Accreditation (Certified Evaluation and Accreditation for University) Results On accepting applications for University Accreditation from 56 universities, the JUAA has undertaken the evaluative process. The evaluation including document-analysis and site-visit has been conducted by the University Accreditation Committee with subcommittees.

  • Shinto Gagaku Flyer.Pdf
    Institute for Japanese Studies Lecture Series An Introduction to Shinto and Gagaku: Japan's Traditional Religion and Music Moriyasu Ito, Atsuki Katayama, Takanaga Tsutsumi Meiji Jingu Shrine (Tokyo, Japan) Monday, September 24, 2018 Lecture & Performance 5:15-7:00pm Doors Open at 5:00pm Jennings Hall 001 (1735 Neil Ave.) Many in contemporary Japan enjoy the occasions of Halloween and Christmas while the patterns of their daily life honor the traditions of Buddhism and Shintoism. Indeed, Japan is best known to the rest of the world for its Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, especially in the ancient capitals of Kyoto and Nara, together with cultural legacies such as Zen practices, gardens and other forms of art. Today’s presentation will focus on Shinto and gagaku music that goes with Shinto ceremonies. Shinto is Japan’s indigenous religion that long predates the arrival of Buddhism in the sixth century via China and Korea. To this day, a vast majority of Japanese people visit Shinto shrines on seasonal and auspicious occasions throughout the year. Unlike most organized religions, however, Shinto has no original founder, no formal doctrines, and no holy scriptures. One of the best ways to learn about Shinto is to attend a presentation, and to experience some aspects of it first-hand, by those who practice it. For today’s presentation, three priests from Meiji Jingu¸ one of the best known shrines to both Japanese and foreigners, will discuss the relationship among Shinto, nature, and the way of Japanese life. They will also perform gagaku, Japan’s traditional music, which can transport the audience in the echo of time and space from the ancient to the present.

  • Professor Kenzo Takizawa's 16-Year Contribution to English at Hakuoh
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE Professor Kenzo Takizawa’s 16-Year Contribution to English at Hakuoh University Jeffrey C. Miller 1 As we all know, happily in 2015 Hakuoh celebrated its 100-year anniversary. It is therefore fitting that we look back with pride and gratitude at some of the steady steps that the university has taken over the past two decades towards achieving this significant milestone. Furthermore, as several key individuals have been associated with this progress, it is appropriate to single out those persons for public recognition of their accomplishments that have helped to create today’s Hakuoh University. This short subjective article is an attempt to do just that; to reflect on the considerable contribution of Professor Kenzo Takizawa, who retired in March of 2016, to English teaching and learning at Hakuoh University. To begin, I should describe the school in the spring of 2000 when Professor Takizawa and I were hired. At that time, Hakuoh only had one campus, the one now known as the Main Campus, and was made up of the faculties of Business Management, from 1986, and Law, from 1991, as well as the older, from 1974, junior college. In 2000, the total enrollment was 3,996 and the number of full-time teachers was 104. Since Hakuoh University’s foundation under the late first-President 1Faculty of Education e-mail:[email protected] 1 Kazuyoshi Kamioka, English has always been a strong point of the school. Professor Takizawa and I were very impressed to find such a large number of native and fluent non-native full-time English teachers working in both faculties and the junior college.

The University was renamed Kokugakuin University in 1919 and was established as a university in the current education system in 1948. The University has opened and restructured faculties, departments, and graduate schools to reach the current status of five departments, three graduate schools, and the Law School (professional graduate school). The University has the Shibuya Campus in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, and the Tama-Plaza Campus in Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture, and engages in education and research based on the founding spirit of “pursuing the true depth of knowledge,” the official proclamation on which the University stands firm. After its accreditation review by Japan University Accreditation Association (JUAA) in the 2008, in 2012, the University formulated a mid-term plan as part of the University’s 21st Century Research and Education Plan by setting Shinto’s spirit of tolerance and humility without losing one’s sense of Japanese identity as the basic principle in cultivating persons of talent, and has carried out a unique curriculum that applies this founding spirit. The unique features of the University include small class sizes from the first year until graduation in the Faculty of Human Development, which helps students learn a sense of independence and fosters persons of talent in accordance with the Faculty’s educational purpose.

  • Aspects of Shinto in Japanese Communication*
    Intercultural Communication Studies XII-4 2003 Asian Approaches to Human Communication Aspects of Shinto in Japanese Communication* Kazuya Hara Meikai University, Japan Abstract A person’s religious view is one of the elements that strongly influences his or her guiding principle in daily communication. In this essay, the author focuses on Shinto and attempts to conceptualize its influence on aspects of Japanese daily life and communication. First, the author reviews Shinto’s definitions, types of modern Shinto, the concept of kami (gods), the-other- world-views, reverence of nature, worship of ancestors, musubi (the mystical power of becoming or creation), and purity. Then, the author proposes two communication models based on a Shinto perspective: (1) kan’no (responding to nature as a deity) as intrapersonal communication; and (2) the sense of oneness with kami achieved by carrying mikoshi (a portable Shinto shrine) in matsuri festival. Introduction Sound human communication is being confronted with crises because of environmental disruption, superficial human relationships in society, or inhumane crimes. In such a time, it seems meaningful to rethink what we live by, and to what we owe our appreciation for our existence in this world. A person’s religious view is one of the elements that strongly influences his or her guiding principle in daily communication. For example, Wakimoto (1990) states that religious worldview not only inspires a person’s way of life, but also sways his or her value judgment and decision making. Among various religious and cultural views held, for most Japanese people, Shinto1 has had the greatest influence on their communication as the nucleus of their mental and behavioral culture with its simplicity (e.g., Irwin, 1996; Tsujimura, 1987).
