For example, we used to have about 10 spots we could fill every year all over Japan with Deutch Bank, and several other major companies. But over time they've lost interest. I don't think it was because the students sent weren't good enough. It could have been that the professor with the relationships want very interested in that side of things. He was more focused on language acquisition and teaching.

I tried to get a second professor involved so we could have one over the study abroad and learning/teaching language, and another over "real" business relationships, but it wasn't happening. I was also just a student with big ideas so they weren't really listening to me
