About Prof. Sugawa

Question for the PhD students:

"What words/phrases do you associate with Prof. Sugawa?"

Answer:

rigorous (x3), mushroom hunting (x2), fast walker, plain attitude, intelligent, mild disposition, brilliant, man of character, conscientious, genious, calm, illuminating instructions, busy, cool, constant, homorous, systematical

... Well, at least these were the answers to the questionnaire.

But honestly, talking about those obvious things like "rigourous", "intelligent", "genious" or "man of character" seems quite boring and to be an old hat. So, lets focus on the more interesting sides. At first, "mushroom hunting" comes to mind. Prof. Sugawa is a member of the Sendai Mushroom Club and spends a lot of time in the woods. As a result, he is also a "fast walker" on level ground. (He might say, that other people are too slow.)
His "constant" and almost "plain attitude" leads to a "systematical" approach for all matter. During the seminars Prof. Suwaga is always "conscientious" with a "mild disposition" and gives very "illuminating instructions". This "calm" basis is probably the key to manage his "busy" schedule in a "brilliant", "humorous" and, one might even say, "cool" way.

Introduction

Yamazaki, Keita

In an age of increasing digitalization, I find myself resisting the trend by being something of a quasi-enthusiast of writing instruments. That said, digital media does not deteriorate and is much easier to manage, so I scan what I write on paper and store it as PDFs. No matter how far digitalization advances, I doubt I will ever move away from this hybrid style of using both paper and digital formats.
By the way, the photo shows several 849 ballpoint pens made by Caran d’Ache, a Swiss writing instrument manufacturer. Each pen contains ink that matches the color of its body. In my research, I find that drawing figures and thinking through ideas with color-coding is an essential first step, so having such a rich variety of colors is extremely helpful.
