If you were the organizer, what would you do to improve the orientation week?

Example 1: I would allocate more time for interactive activities such as the diversity session and orientation to Okinawa. Example 2: I would add an introduction session for clubs (research support information, tips for grocery shopping, how to get a driver's license in Okinawa, etc.)

How would you rate the orientation webpage?

How would you improve the orientation webpage for students in the future?

Example 1: I would remove some of the contents so that new students can focus on only the essential information for the first month. Example 2: I would add more photos to make it look more exciting!

Let us know if you have any feedback or comments for the organizers or the speakers.
