以下、ゴンザレス先生からのメッセージです。 Hope College proudly claims graduates from many parts of the world, including Japan. The relationship between Japan and Hope dates to 1879 when in the first graduating class two of the graduates, came from Japan. For over 130 years Japanese students have enriched Hope's campus and education. Because of distance our Alumni Office has not been able to have more direct contact with its graduates and friends in Japan. We would like to change that. This coming July we will have an opportunity to have an official welcome for Hope alumni in Japan. Events are now being planned for Saturday, July 17 (12-3 pm at Mile's Cafe in Ikebukuro). We will provide more information shortly but, for now, we simply write to have you save the date. As part of this official event, the Hope College Jazz Ensemble perform and there will other Hope representatives will in attendance.
