Masaaki Shibuya, mayor of the village of Ogasawara, reportedly expressed his willingness to allow Japan’s government to proceed with a preliminary survey, called a literature survey, of the island, which is one of several within the Ogasawara Islands.

In this meeting, the current state and activities of the Student Section Committee will be discussed. This committee represents all the student sections of ANS at the national level. Student leaders and volunteers determine how the SSC will function and how the SSC can best support students in their local chapters. Having student involvement at the national level is crucial to the continued success and support of student ANS chapters. If you are interested in becoming more involved with ANS on a national level please attend this meeting. If you are a student section president, it is mandatory you, or a representative from your university, be in attendance.
