It was renamed Azabu University in April 1980 and is currently organized into two faculties (School of Veterinary Medicine and School of Life and Environmental Science) and two graduate schools (Graduate School of Veterinary Science and Graduate School of Environmental Health) with the campus located in Sagamihara City, Kanagawa Prefecture. After its accreditation review by Japan University Accreditation Association (JUAA) in 2010, the University formulated its “Third Mid-term Targets and Plan” (2015-2020) in 2015 with the objective to act on its founding spirit “explore academically and practice conscientiously” and has been making improvements such as clarifying the role of the faculty council and board of councilors in administration. As part of its social cooperation and social contribution activities, the University opened The Life Museum of Azabu University where it displays information about the university’s history as well as zoology, environmental studies and other fields in an easy-to-understand manner. It is also holding and expanding the “small animal clinical seminar” meant for veterinarians by leveraging the Azabu University Veterinary Teaching Hospital. This effort is commendable for strengthening relations between the community and persons related to veterinary services.

Some physicians might make light of patients’ rights, because the increased awareness of such rights might make it more difficult for them to conduct medical practice. In the present study, predictors significantly associated with “a sense of resistance to patients’ rights” were examined using anonymous self-administered questionnaires. For these predictors, we produced original items with reference to the concept of ethical development and the teachings of Mencius. The subjects were medical students at the Kitasato University School of Medicine, a private university in Japan. A total of 518 students were analyzed (response rate, 78.4%). The average age of enrolled subjects was 22.5 ± 2.7 years (average age ± standard deviation). The average age of 308 male subjects was 22.7 ± 2.8 years, while that of 210 female subjects was 22.1 ± 2.5 years.
