Next fall, Temple Japan will move to a new campus that will significantly shape the future of the school and its student experience.
After 36 years in Tokyo and more than two decades in its current location, Temple University Japan Campus (TUJ) will move next fall into a brand new six-story building on the campus of Showa Women’s University (SWU).
In December, the Temple community joined TUJ Dean Bruce Stronach and Margery Sly, director of the Special Collections Research Center at Paley Library, to mark the dedication of the Temple University Japan Campus historical archive at Paley. Former TUJ Dean Rich Joslyn compiled the archive, which gathers materials from Temple’s 37-year history in Tokyo and celebrates the history of TUJ—the only Japanese branch campus of an American university. Provost JoAnn Epps and members of the TUJ family spoke about the significant milestones and future of TUJ.
Temple Rome recently sat down with Barbara Caen, the new associate director and director of the Internship and Community Engagement program. Originally from Antwerp, Belgium, Barbara received her BA and MA in art history from the Catholic University of Leuven and held a one-year Erasmus fellowship at the University Paris IV-Sorbonne. Barbara received her PhD in art history from the University of Zürich in 2012 and held a doctoral fellowship at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and two post-doctoral fellowships: one at the Frick Art Reference Library and one at the Academia Belgica in Rome.
