  • RASA-Japan SINCE 1985 RASA Newsletter July 2013 Edition, Volume 14
    2013 年 7 月号 VOL.14 NPO 法人 RASA-Japan SINCE 1985 RASA Newsletter July 2013 Edition, Volume 14 Dear Friends of RASA, I would like to wish all of you the peace and love of God and thank you for your generosity in helping us. Here, I would like to write a little about our recent activities and our immediate plans for the fu- ture. On Saturday, May 25th, we had our annual meeting at Hirabari Catholic Church, which was led by Mr. Norio Fujii, our Office Manager. Besides our staff and regular members, I was delighted to see some of last year's volunteers at the meeting. After we finished our official business, they gave a power point presentation of our activities in Angeles City, Pampanga Province, a two-hour drive north of Manila, where we worked last year. Ever since that time, these volunteers have been giving a great deal of their time to support RASA. Their generosity is an inspiration to all of us. We finished the first of our three study session on Saturday, June 15th. It took place in one of the large dining rooms of Nanzan University, Nagoya campus. Almost all of those committed to the pro- gram this summer—fifty-two volunteers—were present at the meeting. We will be in the Philippines between Thursday, August 15, and Sunday, September 1. It seems that the government has reduced the ODA (Overseas Development Assistance) funds to half of what they have been providing. Because of this, we decided that RASA alone would provide the funds for our school-building program this summer.

  • President's Position Statement for 2009
    President’s Position Statement for 2009 To All Faculty, Staff and Students at Nanzan University Last year, in the Nanzan University Grand Design, Nanzan University shared its vision as the sole Catholic university in the Chubu region. That vision is “to contribute to the creation of values that arise from people living and working together while respecting human dignity, building on the recognition of diversity and the understanding that various differences exist among people in terms of ethnicity, ability, religion, culture, and gender.” In last year’s President’s Position Statement, I stated that in order for the mid- to long-term goals of the Grand Design to be achieved, “unceasing self-reform” and “internal enrichment to bring about the ‘Nanzan Difference’” will be needed. I believe that “internal enrichment” means that every person constituting the University needs to enrich their individual strengths. I would like you to continue working toward making that a reality this year. The Nanzan University Grand Design is not a fairy tale, but is a realizable future image of Nanzan that we have the serious responsibility to bring about. Every constituent member of this university needs to embody that fact in their daily activities. The policies outlined in this year’s Position Statement were determined based on the recognition that further enrichment in Research, Education, and Social Contribution is necessary for us to be able to achieve the Grand Design mid- to long-term goals. I. Basic Position 1. Advancement of Education that Differentiates Nanzan as a Catholic University The raison d’être of Nanzan University is to “disseminate broad knowledge and to conduct and instruct specialized research based on a Christian world view and thereby develop individuals who respect and advance human dignity.

However, little is known about how much impact archival holdings actually have on historical research, what role they play in building public knowledge about a historical event and how they contribute to the process of recording history. The case of the No Gun Ri incident provides a good example of how archival materials play a role in historical discussions and a good opportunity to look at archival contributions.

  • President's Position Statement for 2010
    President’s Position Statement for 2010 To All Faculty, Staff and Students at Nanzan University Since I took office as President in April 2008, I have considered and implemented various poli- cies to enhance our uniqueness keeping in mind the key phrase “Nanzan Difference”. Looking back on these two years, I believe that with your cooperation much has been accomplished. But, there remain things that are yet to be accomplished. In developing the President’s Position, I have focused on the realization of the Grand Design’s mid- to long-term goals and so continue to make “Further Strengthening of Nanzan’s Internationalization” our top priority. To that end, we will establish the “Office for Internationalization” as a special committee. Further, recognizing the importance of the long-standing concerns regarding the revitalization of “Nanzan: Famous for Language Studies”, we are making the development and enhancement of English education a priority as we approach the reorganization of Nanzan Junior College into the Junior College Fa- culty in 2011. Through these initiatives we will make ‘empowering the individual to become a power in and for the world’ a visible reality. In addition to the above, long-standing issues such as improving the quality of education and research, procuring quality students, producing competent graduates, and managing the physical properties of the Campuses must also be addressed. We are making the establishment and im- plementation of the “Three Policies” a new priority as a means of ensuring the quality of our education. While the selection of priority issues is necessary, what is most important is for each constituent member of the University to recognize the responsibilities and missions that have been bestowed upon all of us and to deepen our understanding of Nanzan’s educational principals through dia- logue with society and with students.
