Centre for Japanese Research:
Memorandum of Understanding
Signing Ceremony
On November 13, past CJR co-director Christina Laffin represented the Centre at a signing ceremony for a Memorandum of Understanding with the Institute of International Studies at Gakushuin Women's College. Professor Laffin offered a lecture in Japanese on the institutional history of Japanese literary studies outside Japan and plans were made for a series of future events and opportunities involving faculty and students. We look forward to collaborating with Gakushuin Joshidaigaku and are grateful for their willingness to work together in enhancing and supporting research.
