About

Join us on August 20, 2026, from 1-5 PM, for the culminating event of the 78th Japan-America Student Conference (JASC), a student-led academic and cultural exchange program bringing together an equal number of university students from Japan and the United States.

Founded in 1934, JASC gives delegates three weeks of shared travel, study, and leadership training designed to deepen mutual understanding of U.S.–Japan relations. This summer, JASC delegates journeyed together through San Francisco, Nashville, and Washington, D.C., exploring the many dimensions of the U.S.–Japan relationship. At the Final Forum, students will present the culmination of their research through seven roundtable themes.
