Tokyo University picks runner-up Fujigaki as next president

Original: 学長

The University of Tokyo has selected Yuriko Fujigaki, who placed second in its internal faculty vote, as its next president, prompting Education Minister Takeda Fumio to say the ministry will closely watch how the university explains its selection reasons and process. The decision has drawn attention because the top vote-getter was passed over, raising questions about governance and transparency at Japan's most prestigious university.

Why now: The choice of the second-place vote-getter as next president sparked debate over transparency and university governance.
