LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENTThere are three events that had very special significance for the Japan ICU Foundation in 2010-2011 – the Great East Japan Earthquake which struck the Tohoku region of Honshu Island on March 11, 2011, the dedication of the Kiyoshi Togasaki Memorial Dialogue House in 2010 and the dedication of ICU’s two newest dormitories, Gingko House and Oak House, in 2011.

It was during the weekend of March 11-13, 2011 that the Japan ICU Foundation was holding its Annual Trustees Meeting in New York City and, early in the morning of Saturday, March 12, we became aware of the devastating earthquake that had just taken place in north-eastern Honshu. It was a particularly difficult time for our four colleagues from ICU who were attending the meeting. Not only were they deeply concerned about family and friends along with the students, faculty and staff at ICU, but they were also deeply concerned about their nation as a whole. Within hours of hearing the news, President Norihiko Suzuki and Managing Trustee Hayao Shiraishi had already decided to initiate a tuition waiver fund for ICU students from the areas most affected. And subsequently, several weeks later, another project was introduced to provide badly-needed psychological counseling for people from those areas whose lives would never be the same, especially the very young. As many of you are well aware, the Foundation has been, and will continue to be, deeply committed to raising funds for these two ongoing projects, and we thank you for your support.

The dedication of the Kiyoshi Togasaki Memorial Dialogue House was in September of 2010 and the dedication of Gingko House and Oak House in March of 2011. At the Japan ICU Foundation, we were once again reminded of the extent to which the generous bequest of Donald and Mildred Othmer had benefitted ICU and helped to undergird the thriving sixty year relationship between ICU and JICUF.

At the request of ICU, in recent years, we have been able to assist the university in putting up six new buildings – the Mildred Topp Othmer Library, Global House, Dialogue House ( a conference, dining hall and residential facility), and three new dormitories. In addition, preliminary plans are already in place for the construction of two additional dormitories and a faculty housing complex. In every case, the Foundation is pleased that, through such buildings, it has been able to support the three essential dimensions of an ICU education – the broadly international, the ecumenically Christian and the creatively academic.

As a result of the support that we offered for ICU’s six newest buildings, more international students will be housed on campus, more short-term faculty will have places to stay, more international conferences will be held, more international programs will emerge, both during the academic year and during the summer,

and, equally significant, there will be a much stronger sense of community on the campus as a whole.

The Japan ICU Foundation is ready to explore more ways of working with ICU as it creatively implements that wonderful injunction from the movie, Field of Dreams, “If you build it, they will come.” Now it is up to all of us - ICU, ICU’s many alumni and friends around the world and the Japan ICU Foundation. I am confident that there will be many more innovative programmatic initiatives that will soon be capturing the interest of us all and inspiring our support.

Many thanks for your generous assistance in the past, and we look forward to your continuing involvement in all that we are now doing to not only be good stewards of JICUF’s enduring relationship with ICU, but also to be good stewards of the innumerable opportunities which now lie ahead.

Sincereley,

David W. Vikner


My ICU: Experiences on Campus


This annual report for 2010-2011 focuses on places of special significance on the ICU campus for four people - a student, an alumnus, a faculty member, and the President. This is because at ICU, the campus, for virtually everyone, is a very significanct component in one’s experience of the university. Its natural beauty, its buildings, its layout, its tranquility and even its historic significance all combine to make it especially unique. Each of the four people featured here has a special relationship with the Japan ICU Foundation. Khin Hninn Phyu is a JICUF scholarship recipient, Yasuyuki Owada is a graduate of ICU’s first class and a member of the JICUF Board of Trustees, John Maher is an ICU professor who has been a good friend of the JICUF, and Norihiko Suzuki has been a close working partner with us over his eight year tenure as ICU’s President.

Each one of us most likely has several places on the ICU campus that we have come to cherish. Some of these places might have been present on the campus from the university’s founding some sixty years ago. Others might be more recent. And it is wonderful that the four people highlighted in this annual report have straddled the years and mentioned both the old and the new.

Not only has the original uniqueness of the ICU campus been largely perserved, but it has also been enhanced over the years. With a growing sense of concern for the natural environment, the construction of several new buildings designed to complement ICU’s natural setting, the elimination of motorized vehicles from the heart of the campus, and an increased emphasis on ICU’s early history, efforts have been made to make the campus even more memorable for ICU’s next generation.

Khin Hninn PhyuKhin Hninn Phyu graduated from ICU’s College of Liberal Arts in 2011 and will be pursuing a graduate degree in natural science from ICU’s Graduate School starting in September, 2011. Khin hails from Myanmar and is a recipient of the Japan ICU Foundation’s South and Southeast Asian Scholarship. Khin is fluent in Japanese, English and her native Burmese. She wants to eventually return home to help in the development of her country.

The five places and things on the ICU campus that are most meaningful and familiar to Khin are:

1. Bakayama2. The bus rotary3. The ICU Church4. Room #302 in the science hall5. The Global House dormitory

“I majored in Natural Science and room #302 in the Science Hall, which is a small computer server room, is where I spent most of

my time studying and doing research.”

“I graduated from ICU in July of this year and am delighted that I was accepted into a MS program at the ICU Graduate School!”

“I have lived in Global House ever since I arrived in Japan. The dormitory supervisors and students always welcomed me home with warm smiles. Moreover, being on campus gave me both

shelter and security.”


“ICU is the heart of my life in Japan. Several new buildings with modern designs have been constructed recently. I believe this

mixture of new and old represents the uniqueness of ICU.”

Yasuyuki OwadaDr. Yasuyuki “Yash” Owada is a member of ICU’s first graduating class in 1957. He also worked at ICU as the Administrative Assistant to President Nobuhiko Ukai in the 1960s and later as an Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior at ICU. He went on to be a Professor of Anthropology at Redlands University and is currently a member of the Japan ICU Foundation’s Board of Trustees.

The five places and things on the ICU campus that are most meaningful and familiar to Yash are:

1. Kuni House (ICU’s first male dormitory)2. Faculty residence 347 (The Kreider House)3. The telephone operators room - Honkan4. Taizanso’s one-mat tea house5. The interpretors room in the ICU Church

“Immediately after I graduated, I was asked to live in the Taizan-so one-mat tea house with two fellow classmates. The moisture

that accumulated could potentially cause serious damage, and we were asked to open the amado every day to air out the house.”

“After earning my MA degree and completing the course work for my doctorate at Columbia University, I was delighted to return to the ICU campus in 1961 to work on a longitudinal study of the

changing values of students.”

“When I worked at ICU in the 1960s, I agreed to translate Reverend Yasuo Furuya’s sermons into English. On Sunday morn-

ings, I would climb the ICU Church tower to the interpretor’s room and would simultaneously translate his sermons.”

“As part of a work-study program, every morning I would walk over to the Kreider’s House (faculty residence 347) by 5:00am to

start their coal fire and clean the exterior of the house.”

5



John Maher

“A witness to war and peace, the Honkan still surges through different worlds. Sometimes empty as if a building of ghosts.

Sometimes overflowing with a thousand voices and the sound of moving feet. Ever a place of passage, hope and communication.”

“The top floor of Dialogue House teaches many things: the unity of nature, the negation of forms, the continuity of existence.

There are trees and beyond them a plain and beyond, Mt. Fuji.”

“There are no Guardian Deities at the ICU gate, instead great lamps sit atop grey slate stone. Lighting the way. ICU is not the

goal but the gateway to knowledge and change.”

Dr. John Maher is a Professor of Linguistics in the Department of Media, Communication and Culture. He is also the Director of the Institute for Educational Research and the Director of the Graduate School Program in Public Policy and Social Research. Dr. Maher has taught at ICU since 1988 and originally hails from England.

The five places and things on the ICU campus that are most meaningful and familiar to Dr. Maher are:

1. Taizanso gardens2. The ground floor of the Honkan3. Hachiro Yuasa Memorial Museum4. The 7th Floor of the Dialogue House 5. The Front Gate

“The Hachiro Yuasa Museum enriches and renews our friendship with the past.”

6



Norihiko SuzukiDr. Norihiko Suzuki was appointed President of ICU on April 1, 2004. During his tenure he has overseen successful academic reforms in both the College of Liberal Arts and the Graduate School. He also led the revitalization of the campus, with the construction of three dormitories, a dining hall and the Dialogue House. His term as President is coming to an end on March 31, 2012.

The five places and things on the ICU campus that are most meaningful and familiar to President Suzuki are:

1. The President’s office2. The university chapel3. The President’s house4. The new dining hall & Dialogue House5. The academic reform

“In my office, there is a chair where I can sit by myself and think.”

“At matriculation and commencement ceremonies in the university chapel, I have a chance to see student’s faces and shake

their hands.”“I spent precious time with my family at the President’s House.”

“This is not a place, but I am thankful for the cooperation of all faculty and staff at ICU for making these reforms, some 50 years

after the university’s founding, become a reality.”

7



“This green and leafy place is restorative. In crisp early morning or in the fading light of day, the trees and stones of the Taizanso

Gardens cover all, even the distant roar of the highway, with a mantle of peace.”

“The Dialogue House serves as an inspiring symbol for the redesigned campus.”

“With the matriculation ceremony at the university chapel, I was officially welcomed to ICU.”

“Three students worked as a team to operate the switchboard in the telephone operators room from 7-8AM, and from 5PM-

midnight. After my afternoon duties at the Kreider House, I would rush back to work at the switchboard.”

The JICUF also reached out to students interested in ICU’s Summer Courses in Japanese, in study abroad opportuni-ties at ICU, in transferring to ICU, as well as those who are interested in being regular four-year students. The comple-tion of three new student dormitories and the new dining hall has also created more enthusiasm amongst prospective students and their families.

STUDENT RECRUITMENTThanks to the generous support of our alumni and friends, the Japan ICU Foundation’s initiatives on student recruit-ment in North America were extremely fruitful during the academic year 2010-11 (April 2010 to March 2011).

The year started with a series of information session events in May, for which staff members from the JICUF, ICU, and the ICU High School travelled to Torrance, CA, Irvine, CA, Chicago, IL, and Columbus, OH to give presentations to prospective ICU and ICUHS students and their families. ICU and ICUHS alumni helped advertise and organize the events and give speeches about their experiences. The presence of alumni was indespensible in representing how an ICU and ICUHS education can help one find professional succeess in various fields internationally.

In the Fall of 2010, JICUF staff visited Portland and Seattle to participate in NACAC college fairs. They also visited local high schools, including a school in Portland at which the Japanese teacher is an ICU alumna. ICU and ICUHS alumni in Seattle volunteered at the college fair to talk with prospective students and were also joined by ICU Professor Julian Koe. Portland and Seattle, with their excellent Japa-nese language programs, have been target cities for ICU and ICUHS’s recruitment programs, and the JICUF plans to return to these cities soon.

ALUMNI RELATIONS

L-R: Mr. Yasuyuki Otake, ICU, Ms. Sakura Suzuki, JICUF, Ms. Hiroko Nagata Bell, JICUF, Mr. Tatsuhiko Matsuyama, ICU, Ms. Atena Sasaki, ICUHS, and Dr. Masafumi Wada, ICUHS, at the 2010 Information Session in Torrance.

Over the years, the Japan ICU Foundation has worked closely with ICU and ICU High School alumni living in North America. However, the role and function of the JICUF with regards to its relationship with ICU and ICUHS alumni has, for some, been confusing.

First and foremost, the JICUF works closely with ICU and ICUHS alumni in North America in order to help them stay connected with each other and with their alma mater.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed between ICU and the JICUF in 2001 states that the “JICUF will provide current information about JICUF and ICU and their missions, activities and programs to organizations and per-sons in North America.” The MOU goes on to list individuals and groups for which this mission applies. The single most important group identified is ICU and ICUHS alumni.

With this in mind, the JICUF is in regular touch with ICU Alumni Chapters and Groups in North America, with the ICU Alumni Association in Tokyo, and has recently begun working with the ICUHS Alumni Association in Tokyo as well. Although we do not exchange alumni contact informa-tion directly with the ICU or ICUHS Alumni Association we do exchange information with ICU, and in turn, ICU ex-changes information with the ICU Alumni Association.In addition to helping facilitate communication, the JICUF

also hosts dinners and runs programs for ICU and ICUHS alumni. During the 2010-11 academic and fiscal year, the JICUF held a dinner for friends and alumni in New York City and organized the first ever ICU Homecoming Tour. 12 ICU alumni and their spouses spent 10 days visiting ICU and travelling to Kyoto, Nara and Osaka. They were able to stay at the newly constructed Kiyoshi Togasaki Memorial Dia-logue House and were also on campus for the annual ICU Festival. It was a wonderful occasion, and we hope to offer a similar program to ICU and ICUHS alumni again in 2012.

Brief Biography of Dr. Hachiro YuasaDr. Hachiro Yuasa was one of ICU’s founders and served as the universi-ty’s first president. Before World War II, Dr. Yuasa served as president of Doshisha University and was forced to resign after speaking out against the war. He lived and worked in the United States from 1938 through 1946. An entomologist by training, Dr. Yuasa received his PhD from the University of Illinois and taught at Kyoto Imperial University and Dosh-isha University before serving as ICU’s founding president. He passed away in 1981 at the age of 91.

The Dr. Hachiro Yuasa Society was formed to recognize those thoughtful graduates and friends who make an estate gift or other form of deferred gift that the Japan ICU Foundation will receive in the future. You can become a member of the Dr. Hachiro Yuasa Society by doing one or more of the following:

• Make a bequest in your will to the Japan ICU Foundation.• Name the Japan ICU Foundation as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy or retirement plan.• Make a gift to the Japan ICU Foundation that pays you income for life.• Make a gift of a residence to the Japan ICU Foundation while retaining the right to live there. • Establish a charitable trust to benefit the Japan ICU Foundation. As a member of the Dr. Hachiro Yuasa Society, your name will be listed in the JICUF’s annual report. More importantly, you will join a long tradition of supporters whose committment to ICU, like Dr. Yuasa, demonstrates a faith in the future through a planned gift that lasts beyond a lifetime.

POST-EARTHQUAKE JAPANAn ICU professor’s mission to provide psychological counseling in Tohoku.

Join us in support of the Great East Japan Earthquake Center for Clinical/Educational PsychologyThere is a strong need in post-earthquake Japan for psychological support services. With this in mind, Dr. Hidefumi Kotani, ICU professor and Director for Advanced Studies of Clinical Psychology, is working tirelessly to open the “Great East Japan Earthquake Center for Clinical/Educational Psychology” with colleagues at Miyagi Gakuin Women’s University in Sendai. The Center will provide both training and individual counseling services. Our goal is to raise $20,000. Will you join us in making a gift to help meet our goal? Please donate at www.jicuf.org/donate. Thank you!
