On November 12 (Thursday), a special open class (health) was held with the invitation of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Paralympic Women's Visually Impaired Marathon, "Misato Michishita". .
　On the day of the event, about 300 students and the general public participated.
　Since the Act on the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities came into effect on April 1, 2016, OIST is considering ways to accept students with disabilities, and Michishita introduced how evacuation guidance is a visually impaired person in the fire scene.
　A student who participated in the class said, "It was my first time to think about disaster prevention from the standpoint of people with disabilities."
　After the class, Yuo Kajitani, the chairman of the physical education, presented Michishita with a message of support for the Rio de Janeiro Paralympics.
　Doshita player! I'm supporting you!
