Fukuzawa believed that in order to become independent, people must develop the habit of expressing their opinions. Along with his students, he trained hard in delivering Western-style “speeches” and built a dedicated hall in which Fukuzawa initiated the art of public speaking in front of a large crowd. From there, Western-style public speaking spread throughout the country and played a significant role in the Freedom and People's Rights Movement of Japan. Fukuzawa was adamant that the management of Keio remain in the private domain. This was putting into practice his belief of not being dependent on the government and living a life of personal independence. Yukichi Fukuzawa was one of the most dedicated educators and ardent enlighteners of his time. His unfinished legacy lives on at Keio University where knowledge and wisdom is cultivated for tomorrow.
