アメリカ側実行委員紹介第7弾!!!



皆さんお久しぶりです。
64回実行委員の森田真弓です。
桜の花も散りだし、暖かくなってきましたね。

今日は私と一緒に「グローバル化における文化芸術」の分科会を担当している、Steveを紹介させていただきます!
彼はとても優しくて、ジェントルマンです^^

以下、彼からの自己紹介です。
 Hey there! My name is Steve Zellmer and I am currently a sophomore at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. While I am currently undeclared, I am pursuing a major in East Asian Studies with a focus on Japan. I have had a home in the chilly dairy state of Wisconsin for all of my life, spending most of my years in the small town of Oconomowoc. My love for Japan began with my childhood obsession with the anime series Dragonball Z, but my true appreciation for Japan began after researching Japanese medieval hero stories and the poetic form haiku during my first year on campus.
JASC was a life-changing experience for me in a number of ways. I found myself in a roundtable about a subject I knew little about beforehand (globalization), but came out with a lot of new information and a genuine interest in the subject. I also valued JASC as a social experience and cultural exchange as I gained new friends with extremely different cultural backgrounds. As an AEC, I want to make sure that the conference continues to offer multiple benefits to the delegates, as an academic, social, and cultural experience. I also hope that we can offer a safe environment for the delegates to share their various perspectives with the delegation. I am really looking forward to the 64th JASC!

アメリカ側実行委員紹介第6弾!!!


皆様こんにちは。実行委員の杉岡です。
春の陽気が日に日に増している今日ですが、如何お過ごしですか。
この度は環境と科学技術分科会のコーディネートを私と共に手掛けているDanielle(ダニエール)を紹介させて頂きます。
彼女は寛大で、知識豊富、そしてユーモア溢れる素敵な女性です。彼女と一緒に分科会をリードできることは大変光栄だと私自身感じている次第です。以下、Danielleのコメントを載せさせて頂きます。
Hello everyone! My name is Danielle and I am in my senior year at Tufts University. I major in environmental engineering and I began studying Japanese language in my sophomore year of college. Outside of my classes , I am the president of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) at Tufts and I also play the clarinet in the university Wind Ensemble. My strict engineering curriculum restricts how many Japanese language courses I can take but I love finding fun and creative ways to continue learning about Japanese culture outside of the classroom. With that said, the opportunity to travel to Japan with the 63rd JASC was truly a dream come true for me.
I value my experience as a delegate to the 63rd JASC largely because I met so many intelligent and amazing people who have changed how I perceive the world. JASC fosters a unique learning environment for students to think critically about society and to connect with one another through cultural exchange. I am incredibly excited and honored to be a part of the JASC tradition and to help make the 64th JASC unforgettable for the next round of delegates.

アメリカ側実行委員紹介第5弾!!!

皆さんお久しぶりです!副実行委員長の川邊です。そろそろ春休みも終わり、新学期が始まる頃ですね!皆さん、春休みを満喫できましたか^^?

レイチェルはとてもキュートかつチャーミングで、しっかりと面倒を見てくれるお姉さんのような存在です!レイチェルの周りは常に笑顔が絶えません。以下レイチェルからのコメントを載せさせて頂きます!

Hi Everyone! My name is Rachel Horton and I am currently a senior at Villanova University in Villanova, Pennsylvania. I was born and raised in Downingtown, Pennsylvania (only 40 minutes from my school) and I am very proud Villanova/Phillies/Eagles fan! I am majoring in Mathematics and my minor is Japanese. As of right now, I have no clue what I want to do in the field of math but being a math major has opened many doors to different fields and job opportunities. On campus, I am the President of Club Swimming and the Japanese Club.
Becoming a delegate of the 63rd Japan-America Student Conference was a dream come true. The other delegates were amazing, the discussions were inspiring, and the experience was priceless. JASC was the most worthwhile and educational month of my college career and the executive committees in both the United States and Japan are working hard to ensure that the 64th JASC is a memorable one!

アメリカ側実行委員紹介第2弾!

日本側実行委員の櫻井です^^
アメリカ側実行委員紹介、第二弾です。
私のアメリカ側カウンターパートは、Jose(ホゼ)です!
彼と一緒に企業と倫理分科会を担当します。

Joseはとても明るいです。日本が大好きで、大学でも日本語を勉強しています。
日本のアニメや漫画に関しては私よりずっと詳しいです!笑

以下はJoseの自己紹介文です。読んでみてください^^
What’s up, everyone! My name is Jose, and I am currently a junior and Japanese major at Duke University in North Carolina. I was born in Cuba, but I moved to the United States when I was seven years old and I have lived in West Palm Beach, Florida ever since. I’m about as nerdy as it gets, and when it comes to video games, manga, and anime, I consider myself somewhat of an expert. I also love to read epic fantasy books such as George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire. Nowadays most of my free time consists of playing League of Legends, which is pretty much my favorite computer game of all time.

My interest in Japan actually comes from my childhood, when I would watch anime shows like Dragonball Z and Rurouni Kenshin every afternoon, and play Super Mario and Final Fantasy. Ever since then I had always wanted to learn Japanese and visit Japan. Thanks to the 63rd JASC I finally got my chance to go to Japan, and it was everything I could have dreamed of. In fact, JASC was probably the best experience of my life. I loved it so much that I want to continue the JASC legacy by helping to make the 64th JASC the most successful one yet!
