Ewha Holds 138th Anniversary Commemoration Ceremony
Ewha held its 138th Anniversary Commemoration Ceremony at the Welch-Ryang Auditorium on Friday, May 31, at 10 a.m. The ceremony, lasting about an hour, began with a commemorative speech by President Eun Mee Kim, followed by the official commendation for faculty members and staff on their 10th, 20th, and 30th year of employment at Ewha, the conferment of the Pride of Ewha Awards, and celebratory performances by the Ewha Choir and the Ewha Orchestra. The event was attended by around 2,000 distinguished guests from inside and outside Ewha, as well as current students. In her commemorative speech, President Eun Mee Kim introduced the stories of Lulu E. Frey, Ewha College student Ada Kim, and the International Foundation for Ewha Womans University (IFEWU), describing their contributions to creating the “history of miracles and gratitude” over the past 138 years. Lulu E. Frey, the fourth Principal of Ewha Haktang, led the launch of college courses at Ewha Haktang in 1910. This led to the founding of Ewha College in 1910, producing the nation’s first female college course graduates in 1914, and becoming the first Korean university to receive government accreditation in 1946 after liberation from Japanese colonial rule. The second person introduced was Ada Kim, who enrolled in the liberal arts program at Ewha College in 1928 and passed away in 1931 after a five-year struggle with illness, praying daily for Ewha College’s relocation from Jeong-dong to Sinchon to her very last moments. In memory of Ada Kim, Principal Appenzeller, the sixth principal of Ewha Haktang, established the Ada Prayer’s Chamber on the third floor of Pfeiffer Hall, a place that is often visited by Ewha students to this day. Lastly, President Kim introduced the International Foundation for Ewha Womans University, which was launched in New York in 1970 as the first official foundation among Korean universities. Since then, the foundation has provided support for Ewha in various forms, including scholarships. This year, IFEWU Chairperson Mary Ann Swensen, along with the foundation’s board members and benefactors, attended the ceremony in person to share in this meaningful occasion in Ewha's 138-year history. President Kim then outlined detailed information on the Ewha Historical Compilation Project and the Ewha Future Campus Development Project, both of which are part of the preparations for the school’s 150th anniversary. As the first outcome of the Ewha Historical Compilation Project, which aims to showcase Ewha’s history and spirit to the world, Ewha Womans University Press published a book entitled Familiar Letters of Lulu Frey (Correspondences by Lulu Frey, 1893-1921) as a collection of Frey’s quotes and letters. Moreover, under the Ewha Future Campus Development Project, Helen Hall will be converted into a cutting-edge library based on new media, and the Human Ecology Building (Morris Hall) will be transformed into the Ewha West Campus, housing the College of Science & Industry Convergence, College of Nursing, College of Pharmacy, and College of Artificial Intelligence to drive convergence research, industry-academia collaboration, and entrepreneurship. Additionally, the 22nd Pride of Ewha Awards were awarded to Kim Taelyon, President of aicorea and Professor Emerita of the Department of Psychology at Ewha, for her long-standing achievements in psychology and education, and alumna Whang Hye Kyung, who persevered through personal adversity to found the Purme Foundation through her donations. The Pride of Ewha Award is granted to alumnae who have made outstanding contributions in various fields of society to exemplify the spirit of Ewha. Organized by Ewha Alumnae Association, the Alumnae Day event took place at the Welch-Ryang Auditorium at 2 p.m. The event commenced with remarks by President Lee Myeong-gyeong of Ewha Alumnae Association, followed by a reunion of alumnae celebrating their 50th and 30th anniversaries of graduation, the selection of Ewha Forever Family and Ewha Family of the Year, the presentation of the nineth Light of Ewha Awards, and a choir festival.

The conference consisted of two main roundtable sessions. In the first session, Korean public sector officials from the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, the Korean Women’s Development Institute, and the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) participated as panelists to highlight Korea’s expanding role in gender equality ODA and discuss further advancement strategies. In the second session, experts from Asia Women Bridge DoRunDoRun, World Vision, the Asia Foundation, and the Korea Center for Gendered Innovations in Science and Technology Research (GISTeR) discussed major activities for gender and development cooperation in Korea’s private sector, presenting Korea’s gender ODA efforts and sharing experiences from civil society organizations to reaffirm the significant role of civil society organizations and NGOs in Korea’s gender ODA. Established in 2007, the Institute for Development and Human Security has conducted extensive research on international development cooperation, with a particular focus on global health since 2013. It was the first institution in Korea to be selected for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s grant program and receive grants for three consecutive times for a total of nine years. The institute is currently conducting research projects on Korea’s gender and global health ODA in 2023, leading ongoing discussions on enhancing global health cooperation and gender equality in development cooperation.

IFFTI Annual Conference Held for First Time in Korea as Venue for Interactions among Global Fashion Schools
IFFTI Annual Conference Held for First Time in Korea as Venue for Interactions among Global Fashion Schools The Fashion Design major at the College of Art & Design hosted the 26th Annual Conference of the International Foundation of Fashion Technology Institutes (IFFTI), marking the event’s first time in Korea and drawing around 200 global fashion researchers and educators from the world’s most prominent universities to attend the conference in Korea. The IFFTI Annual Conference is an annual event hosted by the titular organization, which is widely regarded as the hub for interactions among the world’s leading fashion schools. It is the largest and most influential academic event in terms of exchanges among educational institutions in the field of fashion, aiming to discuss the fashion industry and seek professional development through a diverse range of programs, such as research presentations and workshops. IFFTI is comprised of 55 institutions from 23 countries, including Ewha, which became the first and only member from Korea in 2016. This year’s IFFTI Annual Conference was mainly hosted by Ewha for a week starting on Monday, April 22, and included a tour of fashion sites in Dongdaemun and Seongsu-dong, Seoul. Meanwhile, from Tuesday, April 23 to Thursday, April 25, various related events were held on the Ewha campus under the theme of “Fashion Towards Post-Humanism.” Examining the theme from the perspective of scholars who study, teach, and create fashion as a field that cannot exist in separation from the human body and mind, this conference served as a venue to explore the new meaning of humanity and discuss various issues related to fashion in the era of post-humanism. The conference kicked off at Emerson Chapel on Wednesday, April 24 with an opening speech video by Dior’s Creative Director Maria Grazia Chiuri, followed by keynote speeches by Kolon FnC Vice President Han Kyung-ae, Art Director Seo Young-hee, and Dr. Jeon In-yeoung, CTO of CLO Virtual Fashion. In addition, the ECC lecture rooms and the ECC Theater showcased around 90 research outcomes, including oral and poster presentations, as well as creative research, by researchers from around the world. Lecture rooms in the ECC, the College of Art & Design, and the Graduate School of Design, as well as the Fashion Design Research Institute, hosted workshops conducted by scholars from the UK, the Netherlands, and India on themes such as avatars, artificial intelligence, and sustainable crafts, alongside art workshops by six majors from the College of Art & Design. In addition, the College of Art & Design held a competition for students from IFFTI institutions worldwide on the theme of “Fashion Towards Post-Humanism,” and selected 10 finalists to hold the “IFFTI 2024 Ewha Fashion Film Awards” at the campus art movie theater Art House MOMO located in the ECC. The college also organized a special exhibition titled “Questions to Question,” which explores the questions we need to ask as we encounter the era of post-humanism. This year’s IFFTI conference is significant in that it not only shared presentations by numerous researchers on a wide range of fields, such as fashion design, fashion technology, fashion business, and fashion education, to help understand the timeless and groundbreaking context of fashion research, but also brought together global fashion scholars in Seoul. Ewha’s Fashion Design major plans to use the hosting of this conference to strengthen its global research and education network centered on fashion, which it will seek to actively apply in its undergraduate and graduate curriculum.
Discussion Held with Global Leaders on UN Sustainable Development Goals
Discussion Held with Global Leaders on UN Sustainable Development Goals On Tuesday, April 16, a roundtable discussion on the UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) was held at Ewha Archives, featuring President Eun Mee Kim of Ewha Womans University, former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, and U.S. Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield. The event was made possible by Ambassador Thomas-Greenfield’s decision to visit Ewha to meet the next generation of female leaders in Korea as part of her trip to Korea to engage in discussions on alliance cooperation within the UN Security Council. Under the vision of “A Creative and Innovative Platform Leading to a Sustainable Society,” Ewha Womans University has been strengthening the global capacity of students through various programs to foster global women leaders, which has attracted opinion makers and heads of state worldwide to visit and connect with the next generation of women leaders developing at Ewha. The discussion was held at Ewha Archives in the form of a fireside chat and moderated by President Eun Mee Kim. In her address on the UN SDGs, Ambassador Thomas-Greenfield underscored the need for cooperation among countries beyond borders and national interests, while former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon noted that Korea is currently far behind on the SDGs and must continue to work toward their fulfilment. During the Q&A session, students from the Department of Political Science & International Relations and the Division of International Studies sought advice on women’s leadership and solutions to the issues facing the earth and humanity. Both leaders encouraged the students to take ownership and responsibility towards the world as key players of the future.
Special Lecture by Distinguished Visiting Professor Frances Mary Morris CBE
Special Lecture by Distinguished Visiting Professor Frances Mary Morris CBE The College of Art & Design hosted a special lecture by Distinguished Visiting Professor Frances Mary Morris CBE, a leading authority on modern art, at Emerson Chapel on Thursday, April 11. Professor Morris served for seven years as the first female director of Tate Modern in the UK, the world’s premier museum of modern and contemporary art, where she continues to contribute to date as Director Emerita. Ewha has implemented its development strategy, “Ewha Vision 2030+,” with the aim of solidifying its status as a research-intensive university by generating world-class research outcomes. As part of the “Ewha Frontier 10-10 project,” Professor Morris was invited to Ewha in February 2024 as a Distinguished Visiting Professor of the painting major and the Interdisciplinary Program of Media Arts & Technology. Throughout her career, Professor Morris has presented cutting-edge exhibition spaces that innovate and pioneer exhibition themes and methodologies of modern art as her contribution toward defining the direction of modern art in the 21st century. In this lecture titled “Tate Modern: Ecologies of Transformation,” Professor Morris shared her experiences at Tate Modern over her tenure of more than 20 years as a representative director and veteran curator. “I found myself drawn to Ewha because of the affinity I felt toward working alongside young working-level staff as I built a lifelong career at Tate Modern,” remarked Professor Morris. “I am delighted to have the opportunity to reflect on my career at Tate Modern and to work with a critical and open mindset with the brilliant students and distinguished faculty at Ewha.” During the Q&A session following the special lecture, a flurry of questions added to the excitement of the event. Ewha students asked various questions, such as the most ideal form of diversity to pursue as a museum director and an artist, the role of museums in the future, and the impact of climate change on artists. In addition to the lecture, Professor Morris is also teaching the course “Field-based Criticism I: Art and Criticism” this semester. Drawing on her experience at Tate Modern, Professor Morris explores the changing paradigm of contemporary exhibitions and the role of museums while presenting an opportunity for discourse and discussion to break free from existing hierarchical structures and preconceptions.
