At 11:00 on February 10, 2017, we held a tree-planting ceremony to commemorate the 60th anniversary of our founding in the I-206 classroom on the second floor of the main building of the university. This time, at the 60th anniversary ceremony of the university's founding held on June 4, 2016, we will plant cherry blossoms presented by the members of the Alumni Association. The tree species is a sunny cherry tree. The reason for choosing this tree was that "when Takaoka, who developed this cherry tree, was a teacher, sent many students to the battlefield, saying" Japan would never lose. " However, Japan was defeated, and after the war, many students were killed. Mr. Takaoka was sorrowed by this, decided to create cherry blossoms, a proof of his student's life and a symbol of peace, and spread it to the world. For this reason, it is also a symbol of peace, and in hope of the development of Shimonoseki City University, we selected and presented the sunshine cherry blossoms. "Said Mr. Kumayoshi Tanaka, the first term meeting.

　After the ceremony, we moved to the main gate, where the tree planting area, and planted.

　We hope that the war will disappear from all over the world and cherish the feelings of our seniors who wish for the development of our university, and we will nurture the cherry blossoms that have been given to us.
