Colorado State University (CSU) hosted four students from Fukushima University for two weeks this month. The Fukushima University students performed multiple experiments with CSU students and attended several CSU lectures. Water samples were taken from Lily Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park, as well as multiple area dose-rate measurements. They were also able to watch a hot air balloon launch!

Fukushima University students participated in multiple activities with CSU students during the evenings, including a BBQ, bonfire, and bowling.

CSU and Fukushima University have a long-standing collaboration (over 10 years) and plan to continue student exchanges into the future.
