“Student council members from all over Japan—from Hokkaido to Okinawa—gathered to share their school initiatives, and it was incredibly inspiring. Through discussions on the concrete steps needed to realize an ideal school, I gained many ideas that can be applied to our activities at Ritsumeikan Uji. I also made new connections, making these two days extremely fulfilling. I hope to bring this experience back to our school and work toward creating an even better environment.”

“I had never before had the opportunity to interact with so many student council members from other schools, so this was a truly valuable experience. Hearing a wide range of opinions and perspectives helped deepen my own understanding of what student council activities can be. I want to use what I learned from other schools’ initiatives to help make Ritsumeikan Uji an even better place. It was also a great chance to reflect objectively on our own activities.”
