 Japanese House

 Come join the fun with Yuka Usami and all the residents.  Yuka comes all the way from Konan, Japan to teach about Japanese culture.

 

	Everybody knows that there is nothing to do in Williamsburg, unless you live in the J-House! While this may be a bit of an exaggeration, we do a lot of drinking...tea, that is!
The third floor of Preston Hall is alive with Japanese pop culture. There are daily rituals involving video games, music, and of course manga (though participation is optional). Plus, we cook! Have traditional (or not so traditional) Japanese meals in a warm learning environment. Who could ask for anything more?
