Join Trinity (Trin) Hatchett ’25, a rising junior majoring in political science and minoring in sociology, as she takes us through a day in Hiroshima as part of the Trinity Japan Program.

From walking at the Fushimi Inari Taisha to reflecting at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial and living with a host family, Trin is one of the 20 Tigers who had the opportunity to connect with different representations of Japanese culture this summer.

Trin was always intrigued by the opportunity to study abroad, but she only applied for the Trinity Japan Program after taking global politics and Latin American politics with Katsuo Nishikawa, director of the Center for International Engagement and one of the faculty members leading the trip. Now that she’s back home, Trin describes the trip as a “once in a lifetime” experience.

Each day in Trin’s life in Japan was different, but they all had one thing in common: They opened her eyes to learn about herself and her intercultural development.

“While I learned so much about Japanese culture, business, and politics, this experience taught me about myself and the ability to effectively communicate with others,” Trin says. “I now have the words to be able to clearly define my own culture and belief system and also have the capacity to distinguish the values of other cultures, like Japan, and the beauty within other forms of life management.”

The Trinity Japan Program is one of the nine faculty-led study abroad programs that took place around the world this summer. Discover more at tustudyabroad and trinitycie.
