Students from Rikkyo University in Tokyo found the large tables in the St. Louis Mercantile Library at UMSL a perfect place to work on their homework. The undergraduate students, all business majors, are participants in a monthlong program at UMSL. They attend classes, visit the region’s cultural and entertainment attractions, and spend a weekend with a host family to familiarize and learn about American customs.

UMSL has an exchange program with Rikkyo University, a nationally recognized research university and one of the oldest in Japan.
