Department of Foreign Languages sophomore student Shun Kawahara (a.k.a. Johny Catley) is currently studying at our sister institute Tennessee Wesleyan University as part of a legacy of exchanges between our institutes. For this article, Dr. Ruleman writes about the recent history of exchanges between our institutes and the importance of building sister relationships between not only TWU and NWU, but also Isahaya and Athens. We give our thanks to TWU and Dr. Ruleman for this inspiring article.
