Dormitory Life at Reitaku University

1) Our Vision and Dormitory Rules

Residence Hall at Reitaku University is designed in accordance with our educational vision―to create an environment of wisdom and high moral education for the sustainable future―and therefore it is a principal facility of our educational system. Residents are, therefore, required to enhance their humanistic self-awareness and to cultivate community life in person-to-person interactions. They are also encouraged to cooperate actively in the running of the dormitory so as to hone their skills in governance and the promotion of harmony, leading to rich self-growth.

The residents are requested to observe dormitory rules such as curfew, and to ensure that everything is kept clean and tidy through self-governance with leaders elected from among residents. All residents are encouraged to join events such as dorm-life orientations, unit meetings, and the cleaning of public areas.

Meals

In the kitchen spaces there are household appliances including IH cooking stoves that are free for residents to use for everyday cooking. Some additional cooking equipment may need to be purchased personally. The student cafeteria “Hiiragi” (meaning Holly tree) is open for residents, too.
