| Description |
Aichi Medical College (1920-1931) was a predecessor to Nagoya University School of Medicine. A preparatory course, in which students studied languages and basic education for three years, existed separately from the four-year undergraduate regular course.An inscription of the preparatory course's school song, "Minamoto Kiyoki (Clear Streams)", commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Aichi Medical College preparatory course's alumni association "Tachibana-kai" (named after a fruit indigenous to Japan known as Citrus tachibana), was placed in Tsurumai Campus's newly-constructed Koka-en (Fruit Fragrance Garden) in 1982.
"Our alma mater has seen fifty shining years pass by
On the banks of the pure-flowing Horikawa
With a dream of eternity and the ardor to rise,
Do you see the supreme sparkle of the stars at dawn
On the fields of beautiful Tsurumai in the east?
Blown by the morning breeze from Nagoya Castle in the west,
The fount with blossoming tachibana seems divine, their forms pure
And the rhythm echoes far and wide in the chests of our youth." |
