The conference allows young scholars to present their research to both their peers as well as\u00a0renowned scholars of\u00a0East Asian Studies. This year’s theme, \u201cVoice and Silence: Memory in East Asia”, dovetailed well with Dylan’s recent research. His presentation on February 9th, \u201cPassive Resistance: The Voices of Japanese Evacuees in WWII Japan”<\/strong>, focused on the end of World War II in Japan, trends in Japanese society, and international policy shifts, all through the lens of giving voice to civilian evacuees.<\/p>\n

\"\"“It was a challenging and enjoyable experience,” says Dylan, “and I was able to both receive helpful and interesting feedback on my research and gain valuable practice presenting in an academic environment.”<\/p>\n

Recently, Dylan was also the recipient of one of only three Blakemore scholarships (out of 38 applicants) given for Japanese language study at the Inter-University Center for Intensive Japanese Language Studies<\/a> in Yokohama, Japan. The IUC is one of the most prestigious language programs for Japanese in the world. He will travel to Japan to begin his language study following graduation this June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
