Kansan staff writer Norihito Tanaka, Fulbright visiting professor from Kanagawa University in Japan, is the first professor to participate in the KU-Kanagawa academic exchange program that began less than one year ago. The basis of this relationship is the agreement that cultural, educational and economic exchanges would be made between the two cities. Tanaka, associate professor of business administration, arrived in early January and is teaching a Japanese business and economy class in the School of Business this semester. He also is conducting independent research on Japanese companies that are investing in the United States. The exchange program, which was officially agreed upon by both universities last March, grew out of the already established Sister City relationship between Lawrence and Hiratsuka, Japan. Beyond focusing solely on the economy, Tanaka also wants to teach the Japanese way of thinking and behavior when it comes to business. "If the students want to do business in the future with the Japanese, the students must understand the manners and customs of Japan," he said. "Through my lectures I want to teach a cross-cultural communication with the Japanese. I want them to understand the Japanese as a people." Tanaka said his class was important because people of different cultures evaluated circumstances by their own systems of values and standards. With a working understanding of the Japanese culture, more of the Japanese business world would also be understood. Out of the 30 students in his class,16 are MBA candidates and 14 are seniors. Although none of his students speak Japanese, Tanaka is teaching them the meaning of some business-related terms. "I am very impressed with the students. They are very serious about learning the Japanese economic development process and want to know the secret of Japan's business success." he said. With the economies of the United States and Japan more increasingly intertwined, it is more important than ever that the two countries understand each other and work together, he said. Norihito Tanaka Dou Lattessa, a graduate MBA candidate in Tanaka's class, said the students were given a couple words a day that pertained either to Japanese culture or business. For example, "nemawashi" refers to the lobbying activity done in a company to enlist support from influential people on a draft proposal. Tanaka said it was very similar to the lobbying that goes on in the U.S. Congress. "I enrolled because I wanted to learn about the Japanese economic policies and why Japan had become such a dominant player in the business world," Lattessa said. "This class is going to be really helpful in dealing with the Japanese business world." Clyde Stollenbart, business professor and co-director of the Center for East Asian Studies, said that if sufficient funding were found, a School of Business professor would teach at Kanagawa University next fall. Although in its early stages, the program's long-term goal is to develop a regular exchange every semester, he said. "We hope the program will expand to develop a close institutional relationship that can benefit faculty, students and eventually the outside business world." Stoltenberg said. The program would like eventually to implement exchanges between professors of other KU professional schools as well. Over the last year the KU-Kana-gawa agreement has exchanged two groups of students, with a third exchange going to take place in February when group of 24 Japanese students will spend six weeks at the University studying at the Applied English Center.
