School message

Rissho Educational Corporation has the message "Nurturing moralists and experts."
This school message serves as a guide for carrying on the Rissho spirit into the present day and putting into practice the Rissho University founding principles of "Truth, Justice, and Peace."

A "moralist x expert" is a person who has the qualities and abilities to make the world in which we live and in which we are kept alive a better place in today's world, which is often described as "unpredictable."

Specifically, it is expressed in the following six elements:

  • A person who embodies the concept of “moralist x expert”
    1. know their own strengths
    2. You can discover your specialty by actively taking on challenges and exploring what you like.
    3. You can create a place where you can exercise your role and abilities while controlling yourself.
    4. Able to pay attention to the background and essence of things and consider them.
    5. Create a “new normal” that positively transforms social issues
    6. I can turn the joy of society and other people into my own joy.

In these chaotic times without a compass, we need people who can contribute to society by accepting the joys and sorrows of others, connecting them, and making use of them through active commitment (involvement) to society. Such "moralists" have more depth and substance than mere morality or ethics, and each person has a field of expertise that makes them want to explore and say "This is it!" The humanity we aim for is born from "x" (multiplication) rather than "+" (addition), where neither can be zero.

Rissho University provides strong support for each and every student's learning, encouraging each step along the way.
Furthermore, each and every member of our university, including students, graduates, faculty and staff, will become a "moralist x expert" and contribute to "peace" in the world.
