Rikkyo film studies

[Aaron Gerow]

The news services reported that Rikkyo University, which includes among 
its graduates such directors as Kurosawa Kiyoshi, Suo Masayuki, Aoyama 
Shinji, Shinozaki Makoto and Shiota Akihiko, will be creating a new 
faculty focused on film education. The new faculty will be called 
(roughly translated) the Faculty of Expression and Psychology and will 
involve the Department of Psychology, which will split off from the 
Faculty of Letters, and a new department called the Department of 
Expressive Thought. Film and other forms of media expression will be 
included in the latter.

There are people from Rikkyo on KineJapan. Any details to add to this?
