Small World Coffee Hour
What is a Small World Coffee hour?
This small world coffee hour is organized once every month, with the intention of increasing opportunities for multi-cultural exchange within the campus. It is place for inter-cultural interaction, where international students and Japanese students with different backgrounds meet and talk about their daily life and cultural differences in a very relaxed atmosphere. You can enjoy coffee or tea and a game (networking game), which can enhance cultural exchange or friendship. Please do participate in this, as this is an opportunity for making friends with people across the countries, from undergraduate level, graduate levels etc. It is a chance for enhancing your international existence.
