武庫川女子大学の卒業式が3月20日午前、公江記念講堂で行われ、健康・スポーツ科学部、食物栄養科学部、経営学部の学生が式に臨みました。大学の卒業式は2日間にわたって実施し。2日目は父母等や教職員が見守る中、3学部の卒業生708人に卒業証書・学位記が授与されました。

 

午後には大学院の修了式が日下記念マルチメディア館のメディアホールで行われ、博士課程5人、修士課程86人、専攻科2人に修了証書・学位記が授与されました。

 

瀬口和義学長は式辞の中で、「高度で専門的な業績を上げ、世に問おうとする皆さんは本学の誇り」とし、「公開された論文は即座に参照できる情報化の時代、著者は自らの論文に責任を持たなくてはなりません。論文のオリジナリティやクリエイティビティな成果は永遠に著者に帰属するものですが、学問を前に研究者は常に謙虚でなければなりません。研究、芸術活動の道は今日が出発の日。私たちと共に歩み続けましょう」と激励しました。

 

修了生総代謝辞で、諸川彩葉さん（文学研究科臨床心理学専攻修士課程修了）は、「大学院での学びは決して平坦ではありませんでした。それでも、もがき続ける中で洞察を得られることがあり、困難を越えて得られた知見は大きな糧になると信じています。私たちの行く道を照らし、丁寧にご指導いただいた先生方に深く感謝申し上げます。大学院で得た知識や経験、先生方や友人と学んだ時間を支えに社会に貢献できるよう努めてまいります」と述べました。

 

大学院の修了式は袴や着物姿で参列する人も多く、キャンパスは記念撮影する参列者で華やかな景色に包まれました。

 

The graduation ceremony of Mukogawa Women's University was held on the morning of March 20th at the Koe Memorial Auditorium, with students from the School of Health and Sports Sciences, the School of Food and Nutrition Sciences and the School of Business Administration taking part in the ceremony. The University's graduation ceremony was held over two days, with 708 graduates from the three schools receiving diplomas and degrees on the second day in the presence of parents, faculty members and others.

In the afternoon, the postgraduate graduation ceremony was held in the Media Hall of the Kusaka Memorial Multimedia, where diplomas and degrees were awarded to five doctoral students, 86 master's students and two majors.

 In his address, President Kazuyoshi Seguchi stated that the University is "proud of all of you who have achieved advanced and professional results and are making them available to the world" and that "in the era of information, where published papers can be instantly referenced, authors must take responsibility for their own papers. The originality and creative results of a paper are forever attributed to the author, but the researcher must always remain humble in the face of academia. Today is the day to start on the path of research and artistic activity. Let us continue on this road together," he encouraged.

In her valedictory address, Ayaha Morokawa (MA in Clinical Psychology, Graduate School of Arts and Letters) said: 'My postgraduate studies were never smooth. Nevertheless, I believe that insights can be gained as we continue to struggle and that the knowledge gained from overcoming difficulties will be a great source of strength. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the professors who illuminated our path and carefully guided us. I will endeavour to contribute to society by supporting the knowledge and experience I gained at the graduate school and the time I spent learning with my teachers and friends".

Many of the postgraduates attended the graduation ceremony dressed in hakama or kimono, and the campus was filled with a glamorous scene with attendees taking commemorative photographs.
