Tokyo City University: Entrance Ceremony in Full Blossom

 Tokyo City University

On the 2/4/2015, Tokyo City University held its entrance ceremony at Setagaya Campus in Tokyo, under a blanket of blooming cherry trees.

New students from over the country, all with their own hopes and dreams, came to join one of the six faculties (eighteen schools) or two graduate schools (twelve schools).

The entrance ceremony for new undergraduates, held in the Sakura Center (gymnasium) also featured a performance of the national anthem as well as speeches by President Chitoshi Miki, Chairman of Gotoh Educational Corpration Isao Adachi, and the president of the Parent Teacher Association. Vice-Chancellor Ron Oliver of Edith Cowan University (Perth, Western Australia), the partner school in the Tokyo City University Australia Program which officially began April this year, also spoke. Professor Ron Oliver’s address encouraged new students to study abroad in Australia, stating that “Studying abroad in Perth, Australia will open your eyes in so many ways.” At the conclusion of the ceremony, a rousing performance of the school song “Give Wings to Your Dreams” urged the students forward to a new stage of their lives.

Many senior students gathered in front of the arena to invite the new students to the various club activities, enveloping their juniors in a welcoming mood.

Congratulations to all the new students!
Translator’s Note: Were you surprised to see so many eighteen-year old students wearing suits? At the graduation ceremony last month many female students wore colourful hakama (traditional Japanese pleated trousers), but at the entrance ceremony everyone wears black. This kind of simple black suit is known as a recruit suit, and many will recycle it for job-hunting in their third year.
