Among the three 11th cohort students who had just taken part in the graduation ceremony on Saturday, September 20, one had already started a new chapter as a graduate student in the U.S. and joined the ceremony via Zoom. The other two September graduates, along with three 11th cohort students scheduled to graduate at the end of the 2025 academic year, gathered for the event. At the ceremony, we heard remarks from the Prof. Rhee, Dean of the Center for International Education and faculty of GLFP Forum and seminars., followed by the presentation of completion certificates and commemorative gifts.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top:

graduates for the diverse experiences they were able to gain through this program, along with their kind wishes to continue contributing to it in some way in the future. The 11th cohort was exceptionally bright, actively participating in a variety of events and enjoying themselves to the fullest together. They also realized new initiatives they conceived collectively, such as planning the Nikko field trip and creating their own graduation commemorative item (the GLFP hoodie). They deepened their relationships with GLFP faculty and GLFP staff\u3000members as well, allowing us to spend a truly enjoyable year together.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-209 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/news\/200\/attachment\/20251008_5'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_5.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_5.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_5-610x458.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_5-940x705.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_5-360x270.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_5-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_5-720x540.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/news\/200\/attachment\/20251008_6'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_6.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_6.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_6-610x458.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_6-940x705.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_6-360x270.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_6-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/glfp\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251008_6-720x540.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"txt_en\">Reflecting on how this program could be made even better\u2026This year, we learned so much from the 11th cohort.
