The seminar, which will focus on Japanese his tory, culture and Japanese aesthetic traditions, was held in Chapel Hill, NC, March 15 - 19, 1995. Project Director for the seminar was Dr. Thomas Kusalis, Professor of Comparative Studies in Humanities and Chairman of the Department of East Asian Languages and literatures at Ohio State University. Drs. Roger Ames and Betty Buck from the Asian Studies Program at the East-West Center and the University of Hawaii facilitated discussion and interaction. Mr. John Sylvester from the North Carolina Japan Center delivered the opening keynote address. Several University of North Carolina Council on International Program faculty participated as pan elists. The primary objective of the seminar was to give participants a frame work for understanding Japanese culture; to provide an accurate, sub stantive base for understanding Japanese history, philosophy, art, reli gion, and aesthetics; and to give participants an opportunity to use and discuss a variety of methodologies to help undergraduate students un derstand more about Japan and Asia. Workshop participants interacted with humanities and social science scholars to provide an opportunity for learning more about Japanese culture so they can develop prelimi nary written plans to infuse an informed understanding about Japan into their undergraduate courses.
