Not only do we educate our members, but as well as the entire school body. We have group events that give first hand experience about some of the activities done in Japan.

WHY JOIN? Not only is J.C.C a new interactive experience, but it also has many benefits: Knowledge obtain is knowledge you can spread and make yourself well rounded You expand your horizons about a culture not common to our state.

J.C.C IS NOT We are not an anime club and so our focus is not anime. Although we ourselves DO enjoy anime and may use it as a teaching tool from time to time. Our goal is to explore aspects of Japanese culture that are often referenced by various anime. If anything, this club can help you understand anime better!
