KWANSEI, GAKUIN, KOBE, JAPAN
John Caldwell Calhoun Newton, missionary, for the period 1870-1931. Newton was a pioneer missionary of the Methodist Church South to Japan. He first went to Japan in 1888 as a faculty member of the Kwansei Gakuin Union Mission College and Seminary in Kobe, Japan. He lived in Japan until 1897, and then again between 1903-1923. During the last ten years of his stay in Japan, Newton was President of the Mission College.
Kwansei Gakuin University (Kansei Gakuin Daigaku), colloquially abbreviated to Kangaku, is a non-denominational Christian private and coeducational university in Nishinomiya, Sanda, Osaka City, and Tokyo, Japan. Chartered in 1932, it is the 13th institution with university status in Kansai region, the 23rd oldest outside of Greater Tokyo, and the 46th oldest in the country. Kwansei Gakuin University is one of the leading private universities in Japan. It has a relatively strong network of alumni in Kansai region and has produced a number of CEOs of Japanese companies and politicians.
Kwansei Gakuin was founded in 1889 in Kobe, Japan by Dr. Walter Russell Lambuth (later Bishop), a missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South (MEC-S), USA, with the aim of training missionaries and educating young people based on the principles of Christianity. It was intended to be a small private institution with two departments, a theological school and a middle school. In 1910 the Canadian Methodist Church and the Japanese Methodist Church joined the operation, and Kwansei Gakuin opened a college with literary and commercial courses in 1912. The same year, Kwansei Gakuin moved to the rural farmland which is the site of the present campus in Nishinomiya Uegahara near Mount Kabuto. Three years later, it acquired the status of a full degree-granting university and continued as one of 54 such institutions in Japan until the end of World War II. The school, formerly all-male, opened its doors to women in 1943. In 1948, the university embraced the new 6-3-3-4 school system (6 years in elementary school, 3 in junior high, 3 in senior high, and 4 in college), based upon the American education framework.
