On April 6 (Sun) to 7 (Mon), 2014, we conducted training for first-year students in Department of Public Management. (Location: Shimonoseki City Youth House)

　This training was held with the aim of deepening ties between students and creating connections with seniors and faculty members through various orientations and eating together. 2nd to 4th graders from the same department participated as facilitators, supporting new students to start university life with peace of mind.

　In the orientation, which progressed mainly by senior students, group divisions, self-introduction games, jump ropes, drawing relays, etc. were performed. The tensions of the freshmen were relaxed, laughter was raised, and they were seen working together in each group.

　A group discussion was also held to understand Osamu Gaku in Department of Public Management. The new students gathered their opinions and shared them in groups to engage in discussions, and seemed to have reduced anxiety about studying at university.

　At the exchange meeting held at the dormitory, new students listened enthusiastically to senior students about how to take courses, how to classes, and club activities.

　According to the questionnaire after the training, "I was able to interact with many people and make friends." There were many voices saying, "I was relieved and relieved by the consultation with senior students."

　The spring semester class has finally started. I hope that new students will be able to enjoy a fulfilling university life with friends and senior students they have met during the training.
