This year, 2012 is the year of the London Olympics. Which sports do you want to watch? Personally, I want to watch the tennis because I like Roger Federer very much. Do you know of him? He is one of the most famous and strongest tennis players of all time. He has won the men’s record for the most Grand Slam singles titles – 16 in all. Moreover, and most amazingly, he held the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) No. 1 position for a record 237 consecutive weeks! However, the reason why I like him is not because of his magnificent records but because of his playing style. He plays tennis incredibly beautifully!  (written by student Mr. Harada,　edited by Prof. Simon Smith)

I have a dream. I want all students in Japan to be more social and to bond more with one another. So in order to realize this dream, a senior student and I went to Tottori. In Koyama, Tottori, we met up with students from Tottori University. They belong to ‘Gakusei-jinzai-bank’ a Non-Profit Organization (NPO) which is active in the Tottori area. We discussed how students can become closer to one another and decided to build a new group which as yet remains unnamed.
The group’s mission is to improve the chances for students from abroad to meet other nationalities. In the not so far future I will approach students of Shimane University to see their reaction. Are you interested in this movement?
