Mission
The Japanese Student Association is an international RSO at the University of Arkansas that aims to introduce Japanese culture to students, faculty, and others. Its activities throughout the academic year are organized via monthly meetings during both the fall and spring. These events may vary from fundraising events, where we vend popular Japanese food on campus, to Japanese movie exhibitions, and large, season-themed events. In these large events, we perform Japanese traditional dance, cater Japanese cuisine, and most importantly, present cultural activities including PowerPoint presentations and activity booths to let the audience experience some of the cultural aspects first-hand. Not only are we active within our own activities, but also we perform dances or give presentations in other RSOs’ events such as International Cultural Team, Chinese Student and Scholar Association, and Korean Student Association. Also, if you are interested in Japanese language learning, we have a network of Japanese native speakers and students who are enrolled in JAPN classes.
