PROGRAMS<br />
To achieve these goals, the following components of the ASP program have been<br />
designed and implemented:<br />
1. An intensive program in English language and <strong>American</strong> culture that<br />
gives students the opportunity to acquire knowledge and skills they need<br />
to become active community participants and to succeed academically<br />
while they are in the United States.<br />
2. A program in <strong>American</strong> <strong>Studies</strong> which emphasizes not only the study of<br />
various aspects of <strong>American</strong> Society but also a comparative analysis of<br />
the United States and Japan. In addition, ASP students have the<br />
opportunity to take a limited number of Willamette University courses<br />
from the curriculum of the College of Liberal Arts.<br />
3. Co-curricular programs in the areas of Residence Life and Student<br />
Activities that provide opportunities for experiential learning and that are<br />
supportive of students achieving personal goals in their own<br />
development and in their relationships with others, both within and<br />
outside of the Willamette campus community.<br />
4. Special programs designed to meet the educational and professional<br />
development needs of those working in international corporations and<br />
organizations.<br />
