Japanese students taste U.S. Class lectures seem more like ‘theater’ By Steve Hooks Of the Emerald A two-week stay at the University has given 53 Japanese students their first taste of life in America. The architecture and engineering students, along with eight professors, hail from the Daido Institute of Technology in Nagoya The students and professors attended many University classes, noting the informality of the American classroom as well as the active discus sions “The students here are very eager to study They are very responsive," says Keniichi Tada, an electrical engineering student He adds that in a folklore mythology class he attended, "there was a lecture like a theater." "My teacher sat on the desk while he lec tured,” remarks Katsumori Ito, another electrical engineering student He says he was somewhat surprised by the action Professor Ken Shindoh, chairer of the foreign language department at Daido, explains that the Japanese classroom is much more formal He notes that, out of politeness and respect, Japan ese students are hesistant to enter into discussions with professors during lectures "When an American teacher goes to Japan, he's always trying to generate a discussion," says Tony McCrann, an English language instructor at Buch named to nat Daido and a University graduate When the instructor encounters unresponsive Japanese students, he feels "disillusioned'' at first. McCrann adds While American students typically study five subjects a term, Shindoh says Japanese students may study 20 subjects at a time Consequentially, Japanese students must be "very, very diligent " Students must take a healthy dose of liberal arts courses at Daido along with the engineering and architecture curricula, Shindoh says Many students also belong to sports and academic clubs, he says Japanese women are just beginning to break into technical fields, judging by Daido's enroll ment Of the 2,500 students at Daido, nine are women, Shindoh says Eight study architecture and one studies mechanical engineering, he adds Architecture student Kumi Namura was the only woman in the group The students toured the state as well as visiting the University architecture school and schools at OSU Through the impetus of former University graduate student and Daido Vice-president To shio Maeda, University Pres William Boyd and Daido Pres Chiaki Asada entered into the ex change program between the two institutions in 1979 About 200 students have visited the University through the program, Shindoh says ional college board James Buch, admissions dir ector at the University since 1976, has been named to the Scholastic Aptitude Advisory Committee ot the College Board The College Board adminis ters programs in academic guidance, college admissions, placement and financial aid in formation for 4 million secon dary and post-secondary students As one of 10 members na tionwide on the advisory com mittee, Buch will help review future questions for the Scholastic Aptitude Tests, review policies for the test, and review publications about the SAT programs Such came to Oregon in 1974 as associate director of admis sions and became director in 1976 He was assistant director of admissions at the University of Iowa from 1970 to 1974.
