History edit

Originally begun in 1884 with two students, an elementary school was added in 1888, and a senior high school in 1889.[1] The school expanded to include a kindergarten class in 1914, a dormitory, kindergarten building, and a house for the Methodist missionaries in 1932, and a brand new building for the school in 1933.[2]

Due to the anti-Western sentiment during World War II, the Ei () (meaning "English") in Eiwa (英和) was changed to Ei (), meaning "eternal" or "eternity", in 1941.[2] The name was changed back in 1946.[3] Because of the changes made in the Japanese education system following World War II, each department changed its name to reflect the new government-approved names. In 1965, facilities were expanded to include a location at Oiwake, Karuizawa, Nagano Prefecture and camp was established in 1970 at Lake Nojiri.[3][4]

In 1986, the junior college was moved to a campus in Midori-ku, Yokohama, the attached women's university became a four-year college in 1989, and opened its graduate school in 1993.[5]
