One of our 1st-year students, Shoko Amioka, has taken first prize in the 23rd Mackenzie Cup speech contest at Baiko University in Shimonoseki. Her recitation was based on Franklin D. Roosevelt’s inaugural speech. According to the judges, as well as being presented beautifully, Shoko’s recitation captured the true essence of the speech more than that of other speakers. Our congratulations to Shoko, and our thanks to all the ESS members, faculty, and students who assisted her.
