Record of Our Activities

On October 13th, 37 first-year and second-year students participated in a lecture given by a graduate student from Kyoto University majoring in Studies of Asian and African Regions.  The topic of the lecture was “Names”.  The students were able to learn about the differences between Japan and the country of Uganda through this lecture.

[the participants’ comments]
＊It was surprising to learn that in Uganda there are names that originated from words like “Poor” and “Rich”.

＊It was hard to understand the culture of Uganda at first, but I realized that the life I’m living today is not the standard compared to the life around the world.
