 note = {Recently, "Opening Class at universities has come to stay for the declining number of eighteen-year-old high school students in Japan. This openness at universities provides many opportunities. For universities, it helps to attract prospective students by providing them with more information about the university faculty, majors, and teaching methods. For high schools, it motivates their students to prepare for university life and gives the students more infonnation so they can make better choices when deciding which universities to which they will apply. This paper reports on a trial serninar, "Ethnicity in the World and Japan" which was offered to senior high school students as a summer open class by the faculty at College of Education, Nagoya University. Senior-high school students often learn about international understanding in their schools but they have little knowledge on ethnicity in the world and Japan. Therefore this seminar focuses on ethnicity comparing it with race and nationality. Prospective students had an opportunity to take this seminar on a day of summer vacation in 2006. The seminar was two hours and thirty minutes and separated into three different lectures. The first lecture was on the changing ethnicity in Japan, which has not been the central concern among Japanese because of the notion that Japanese society is supposed to be uniform. The second lecture provided infomation on ethnicity in China and Peru through talks from three foreign graduate students. These graduate students are teaching assistants from Han, Mongolian, and Japanese-Peruvian. The third lecture gave the participants of this seminar an opportunity to discuss ethnicity in the world and Japan. At one point in the discussion, a senior high school student raised the important subject of the cultural conflicts. The Mongolian graduate student replied that conflicts are understandable as there are fifty-six different ethnic groups living in China but overall it is peaceful among the Chinese people. "Open Class" should be analyzed closely in terms of students' academic abilities and the curriculum at high school and university by high school teachers and university professors in cooperation. By doing so, the higher education and high school education would be connected.},
