JAPAN SOCIETY FILM

NUCLEAR NATION II

THURS., MAR. 17 at 7 PM

Japan Society Film is very excited to announce our upcoming New York premiere screening ofNUCLEAR NATION II in commemoration of the 5^th anniversary of 3/11.

This follow-up to director Atsushi Funahashi’s critically-acclaimed 2012 documentary continues his investigation into the aftermath of the 3/11 Fukushima nuclear plant meltdown by following a community of displaced people from Futaba who continue to live in temporary housing.

We are inviting director Funahashi to present his powerful documentary and discuss the ongoing recovery situation through a post-screening Q&A.

I hope you will consider helping us spread the word about this screening on your website, social media accounts or through your classes! Every bit helps and is sincerely appreciated, and I personally believe your readership will be very interested in this screening.

Thank you for your time and consideration!

There is no better—or more enjoyable—way of learning about the world than through travel. In fact, Queens College

encourages all students to leave New York City at some point in their academic careers, whether or not they speak

a foreign language; many classes are offered in English. Study Abroad options range from relatively short summer

and winter intersession courses to programs that last a semester or two. Programs are open to all undergraduate

students from all CUNY campuses (unless restricted by level of study, language fluency, or other program criteria).

There is travel on Fridays and some Saturdays for some programs.

Scholarships are available to study intensive Chinese or Japanese at
Washington University in St. Louis this Summer with the ALLEX Foundation:
http://www.allex.org/summer-chinese-or-japanese/

The WUSTL-ALLEX Intensive Chinese and Japanese Institute will offer
intensive beginning level classes in Japanese and Mandarin Chinese at
Washington University in St. Louis for seven weeks this summer. Each class
meets for 2 hours per day, 5 days a week for 7 weeks. The course is
intensive and requires 3-5 hours of mandatory self-managed study per day.

This program is designed to train students to speak and listen to Chinese
or Japanese, and to introduce students to reading and writing the language.
At the end of the course students will be expected to perform in all four
skills—speaking, listening, reading and writing—at a basic level of
proficiency. Students will not only learn to speak the language; they will
also develop an understanding of Chinese or Japanese interpersonal
behavior. The ultimate goal is to teach students not just to speak Chinese
or Japanese, but to function successfully in Chinese or Japanese culture—to
present yourself as an intelligent person in the culture using the
language. Students will learn to speak and perform correctly in a variety
of social situations.

Scholarships are available.
