With Dr. Crawford taking over from Dr. Alexander as Director, the U.S.-Japan Camp held its sixth annual camp. 23 campers arrrived in Ada on July 14th for the intensive two week exploration of the Japanese language and culture. During the camp, participants interacted with the Sakae Program students from Japan, played mud volleyball, watched Japanese films, made tea bowls, learned the language, and took a course in Japanese history.
In addition, this year featured Japanese Culture Week at ONU, which brought scholars to campus to present their research to the public from northwest Ohio.
Campers had a busy two weeks and expressed their enjoyment of the opportunity to take part in the camp that was supported by the U.S. Japan Foundation and the Ohio Humanities Council.
