Welcome to the Japanese Language and Cultural Society. Who we are JLACS is a student-run society, with the aim to promote the Japanese language and culture to local students, while creating a space for like-minded people to meet. What we do We run events where it provides an opportunity for members to gather and socialise with other students, including students studying Japanese and Japanese nationals, be they international, exchange, full-time, etc.. JLACS is a weekly social club where members can gather regularly. We usually play board games, chit chat with others and practice Japanese and English, and meet new people. Snacks are also provided. JLACS is held every Tuesday from 5:00PM - 8:00PM, at the Hubba Hubba/Backstage Cafe in the Schulz building. JLACS also runs regular special events.
