The 41st annual Ontario Japanese Speech Contest (OJSC), where six York undergraduates secured podium positions, was held at the University of Toronto on March 4 and marked the first time that the event returned in person since 2020.
In total, eight students from the Japanese Studies Program, in the Department of Languages, Literatures & Linguistics (DLLL) at the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies (LA&PS), competed in front of a large crowd that was undeterred by the inclement weather earlier that day. Three York students will advance to the national contest.
