<BODY style=\"FONT-SIZE: 9pt; MARGIN: 5px; FONT-FAMILY: gulim; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fff\"> Procured 7.1 billion won in national funding. Selected 4 years in a row [May 11, 2011] Yeungnam University (president Lee, Hyo-soo) was selected for the \'2011 Education Capacity Improvement Support Program\' and will be receiving 7.1 billion won in national funding, which is the highest amount among national private universities. Since the first education capacity improvement program in 2008, it has been selected for all four years. Recently, the Ministry of Science, Education and Technology (MEST; minister Lee, Ju-ho) and the National Research Foundation of Korea (president Oh, Se-jeong) announced the results of the selections for the 2011 \'Education Capacity Improvement Support Program\'. The \'Education Capacity Improvement Support Program\' for improvement of the quality and competitiveness of university education selects schools depending on the educational conditions and performance. For the first time this year, pre-examination procedures on the formula index was implemented to enhance the reliability and feasibility of this program, and for the final selection, the indexes of the 17 pre-selected universities were pre-examined and reflected in the final results. In result, a total of 80 schools including Yeungnam University were selected. This represents that 18 of the 88 universities (20.5%) supported in 2010 were disqualified, with 10 new schools receiving the funding. MEST stated, \"This shows how much effort is made by universities for educational achievements and improvement of conditions, and we expect that through the process of being qualified and disqualified, improvement of educational capacities will be promoted.\" The total national funding of the education capacity improvement support program is 241.96 billion won. Yeungnam University received the most among private schools in the nation with 7.1 billion won. When including national, public and private schools, it has placed second (Kyungpook National University - 7.2 billion won). The funds can be invested as desired to improve the educational capacities of each university according to their own development strategy. Yeungnam University is planning to used the funding for strengthening research abilities and innovating education to foster \'Y-type Human Resources\', increasing scholarships, improving environments of education and research, developing various employment programs, and providing support for employment. <A class=imageUtil id=thumb_047300753612640733 onclick=\"return hs.run(this)\" href=\"http://www.yu.ac.kr/_yboard-2011/cheditor/show_image.php?im=__2011-06-08_09-31-24_1335.gif\" target=_blank> Students participating in the \'overseas company expedition\' as part of the education capacity improvement program pose for a photo

<BODY style=\"FONT-SIZE: 9pt; MARGIN: 5px; FONT-FAMILY: gulim; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fff\"> First showing of ancient artifacts of Japan\'s Kanto region Display 250 pieces from collection of Waseda University Aizu Museum [April 28, 2011] <A class=imageUtil id=thumb_06292621793503755 onclick=\"return hs.run(this)\" href=\"http://www.yu.ac.kr/_yboard-2011/cheditor/show_image.php?im=__2011-06-07_10-02-50_1328.jpg\" target=_blank> Special exhibit first showing the ancient culture of Japan\'s Kanto region, \'Ancient Japanese Culture from Waseda University\' began at the Yeungnam University Museum on the 28th. This exhibit that will continue until June 17 is the third museum exchange exhibit between Yeungnam University and Waseda University. Beginning with the \'Ainu comes to Korea - Life Culture Special Exhibit of Ainu in Japan\' (Nov 20, 2008 - Mar 27, 2009) held at the Yeungnam University Museum in 2008, it was followed in 2009 by the 2nd Special Exchange Exhibit \'Korean Peninsula seen through Ancient Maps of Yeungnam University Museum\' at the Aizu Museum of Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan. There are 250 artifacts on display from the Kanto region that show the creative and unique ancient culture of Japan from the Jomon Period, Yayoi Period and Kofun Period. Most ancient Japanese artifacts exhibits held in Korea approached the comparative culture studies from a Korean perspective, and this is unique in the fact that it displays artifacts mainly from the Kanto region. In particular, the earthenware, bone tools, shells, stone tools, etc of the Japanese Jomon Period, which is equivalent to the Korean New Stone Age, will help people understand the times, as well as the appearance and development of earthenware, the tools and technologies (stone, bone and shell tools) of the people of the Jomon, mentality (ornaments, funeral rituals), and other cultures of the Jomon. Earthenware of Yayoi period found in Waseda University campus shows that this is when rice-farming became widespread in Japan. Also, the metal artifacts and Haniwa, which are terracotta clay figures, from the Kofun Period, which is equivalent to the Three Kingdoms Period of Korea, show a hint of ancient Japanese culture when royalty was first established. Meanwhile, Yeungnam University Museum offered various educational programs in relation to the exhibit with the sponsorship of the The Hahn Cultural Foundation. They include Korea-Japan archaeological seminars, gallery talks, \'at-your-door archaeological classes\' for multi-cultural families, on-site experience education for kindergarten and elementary school students (making Jomon earthenware patterns, playing the artifact puzzle, etc), as well as commentaries for exhibits. Professor Lee, Cheong-gyu (Department of Cultural Anthropology), director of Yeungnam University Museum, who planned this special exhibit, stated, \"It will not only be an opportunity for better understanding of ancient Japanese culture, but will be a valuable exhibit that promotes cultural exchanges between the two countries.\"

I came to the decision to chase my dreams of a new future in Korea, which I came to know about because of \'HOT\' and \'Shinhwa\' when I was an elementary school student. Being the only daughter, it was difficult to persuade my mother, but finally in 2004, I came to study in Korea filled with dreams and hopes. Finally, after sever years, I have become able to go back home in glory. My dreams came true.\" Wang Tien (26, female), who is currently in her fourth semester in graduate school at the Yeungnam University Department of Media and Communication, came to YU seven years ago. In the first year when China opened the market, she left her home in Liaoning and studied abroad in Korea in search of her interests in Hallyu (Korean pop culture wave). After completing a year course at the YU Korean Language Institute, she enrolled at the YU Department of Media and Communications. In September 2009, she went on to graduate school and is participating as a researcher in the YU WCU Webomatrix Institute. She was also recently given a full-time job by CJ Entertainment. In December last year, she received an internship opportunity open for foreign students studying in Korea and was recognized for her outstanding capacities while working in the CGV business planning sector. She will be working at CJ Entertainment CGV Shanghai Office in the market department. She stated, \"I never thought that I would be working in spreading Korean pop culture through Korean movies in China,\" and added, \"Some movies are not being imported in China depending on the rating, so I would like to contribute in make a policy so that more Chinese people can see a wider diversity of movie genres, and I also want to help CGV enter more markets in China.\" She also said with a smile, \"My studies in Korean started with a mere admiration and interest in Korean celebrities and Korean pop culture, but my studies gained depth and I was able to do what I always wanted. I am very happy for this and I will work with a sense of pride for others sharing my dream. She is currently working on her master\'s degree thesis so that she can graduate this coming August. Her thesis titled \'A Study on the Hallyu Phenomenon in China using Webomatrix Techniques: Focusing on Korean Singers\' focuses on analyzing the visibility of website and the link structure of fan sites for Korean singers in China, and it is about 70% complete. She gave a hint to the conclusion of the thesis saying, \"It is assessed that in China, which has many restrictions and regulations on the spreading of cultures from different countries, the Hallyu began through the internet and currently depends upon the internet. The fan club websites of Hallyu starts does not exist independently, but instead, there is active mutual communication on Korean culture and information through websites.\" <A class=imageUtil id=thumb_05526448318047342 onclick=\"return hs.run(this)\" href=\"http://www.yu.ac.kr/_yboard-2011/cheditor/show_image.php?im=__2011-06-03_09-07-18_1327.jpg\" target=_blank> Wang Tien (left) and Park, Se-jeong (right), receiving instructions from Professor Park, Han-woo in the WCU Webomatrix Institute On another note, the YU Webomatrix Institute was selected for the 2009 World Class University (WCU), and in additional to academic achievements, the job-seeking achievements of the 9 researchers, including Wang Tien, is quite remarkable.

Chae, Seong-gyeong (27), a teacher at the Chilgok Hamji High School who attended the event, said, \"Sports activities are opportunities for disabled youths to gain a sense of independence and confidence, and is thus an opportunity for a different education that will help them adapt to society,\" and added, \"This event, which is also a chance for exchange among the four schools, is expected to arouse more interest among students for \'traditional archery\', and result in more active participation.\" <A class=imageUtil id=thumb_09531525460998844 onclick=\"return hs.run(this)\" href=\"http://www.yu.ac.kr/_yboard-2011/cheditor/show_image.php?im=__2011-06-02_09-27-23_1318.jpg\" target=_blank> Professor Thomas Duvernay (50) of the YU College of Liberal Arts also attended this event. Professor Duvernay, who is well known as an avid fan of traditional Korean archery and also nicknamed the \'blue-eyed Jumong\', stated, \"Traditional archery can be enjoyed by anybody, regardless of disabilities, with practice. It not only improves health, but also can uplift a person\'s spirit,\" and added, \"I am very happy to be able to share the experience of archery, which is a tradition of the Korean people, together with both disabled and non-disabled people.\" Following the archery experience, another event for improving the mental and physical health of disabled youths through indoor sculling was held at the College of Education\'s rehabilitation training center. Kim, Han-cheol, dean of the Department of Special Physical Education, who hosted this event, stated, \"30 undergraduate students of the Department of Special Physical Education prepared for this event as volunteers, despite being the middle of mid-terms so that disabled youths could experience the traditional martial arts of archery at Apryangbeol, which was a training center for young warriors in the past.\" He also added, \"This is becoming a site for true character-building that is destroying the walls between the disabled and non-disabled.\"
