Wartburg College professor Kunihiko Terasawa hosted 13 Wartburg alumni and current students at the ninth annual Tokyo Outfly July 26.

“Across the table, one could hear heartfelt reflections on how Wartburg has shaped their journeys, how its values and friendships continue to guide their steps today, and how each of them still carries a piece of Wartburg in their lives,” Terasawa said. “The clinking of glasses, warm meals and sincere smiles made the evening not just a reunion, but a celebration of a living community.”
