Nihon University disqualified again from receiving subsidy

By on October 24, 2023

The Promotion and Mutual Aid Corp. for Private Schools of Japan decided Monday it will not provide any operating expenditure subsidy to scandal-tainted Nihon University (aka Nichidai) this academic year just as it did in the previous year.

The move reflects continuing problems with the private university’s governance, including its poor handling of a scandal over drug use by members of its American football club.

This year becomes the university’s third time in a row to not receive a subsidy.

According to the corporation for private schools, a subsidy is partially cut or cancelled  if a teacher or executive of a school is arrested or charged in a criminal case related to school management.

Had there been any clear signs of improvement concerning the school’s governance, even part of the subsidy could have been provided. No such action was made.
