The vocational predecessor of the school was founded in 1886.[1] The name "Kyoritsu", meaning "standing together" in Japanese, came from the fact that 34 people were involved in the foundation of the school; among them were educator Haruko Hatoyama, Kyuichiro Nagai (the father of writer Kafu Nagai), and educator Seiichi Tejima.
Mission
The founding of Kyoritsu marked the very beginning of women's higher education in Japan: To recognize the need to "educate modern women in knowledge and skills, and to elevate the position of women in society."[2]
Facilities
Kyoritsu Kodo is the school's 2,010-capacity auditorium.[3] The auditorium has been used for concerts, hosting bands such as Free, James Gang and Yes.[4]
Exchanges
The university has established exchanges and links with other international institutions of higher education—for example, the University of Pennsylvania[5]
