As presented in the Business Meeting at the NCA 100th
annual conference in Chicago on November 22, JUCA was
on the verge of extinction, as the NCA headquarters
were deliberating as to whether the interest groups
and divisions would qualify to be re-affiliated with
the national organization. Well, we have just received
an official word stating that the JUCA has been approved
as a group affiliated with NCA.
We thank Ed McDaniel and Koji Fuse for the hard work
they have done to make this happen. The JUCA will
not only survive but grow to be a truly international
academic organization that serves students, educators,
and scholars interested in and dedicated to the study
in Japan-U.S. communication.
