“下列几项中符合YWCA的意义的是哪个？1 Young Women’s Culture Association，2 Young Women’s Christian Association，…… 5 Young Women’s Christian Area.”
6月的第一个周六，大学Y会员们相聚在一起的地方是举行大学Y共同体项目的教室。大学Y共同体项目是为理解首尔Y，确立作为大学Y会员的正体性，并鼓励会员们树立使命感在首尔Y中积极地活动的一个机会。
走进教室，大家正在观看介绍首尔Y和大学Y的影像和PPT。“首尔YWCA是 Young Women’s Christian Association的缩写，是由1922年当时的新女性创立的。”从首尔Y的历史到组织和进行中的项目，通过知识问答为对YWCA仍不理解的会员进行介绍。特别是向会员们介绍了2010年重点进行的3项重点项目（尊重女性人权的知识社会，拯救儿童和青少年的教育环境，拯救土地和生命的地区社会）以及每年举行的会员活动（特别活动，家庭庆典，赶集日，会员日），并且作为女性基督教市民团体理解首尔Y的角色，同时作为大学Y的一员能够感受到自豪感和责任心。
介绍完首尔Y之后，通过娱乐时间拉进了生疏的朋友之间的距离。用‘key word’轮流做自我介绍，之后接受其他朋友的提问。“我想用‘青蛙’作为我的‘key word’来介绍自己，因为我的名字‘白雨林’快点读的话听起来像‘青蛙’。”“都说我像笑星金荣哲，真的吗？”想掩盖的缺点也毫无顾忌地说出来，有什么好奇的问题也不在乎对方的眼色活跃地提问来，这让我们感受到了才华横溢的大学生们的热情和葱翠的首尔Y的未来。自我介绍之后展开了寻找未来的教育。正确地制定目标并按照目标合理地分配时间，为了实现自己梦寐以求的目标，听取各种意见和百万富翁们的成功秘诀（自我管理，政治，亲密的交往）并写下了自己的未来和梦想。
虽然是为准备就业积累经验而竞争激烈的大学生，为了自己的梦想和首尔Y的未来聚在一起增强意志的大学Y的会员，他们能够展望另一种未来。他们的活动希望能实现大学Y追求的和平和分享，转达温暖的爱迈出第一步。

College Y Community Program "We Are Members of Seoul YWCA"
“Which of the following is the meaning of YWCA? 1. Young Women’s Culture Association, 2. Young Women’s Christian Association, …, 5. Young Women’s Christian Area.”
On the first Saturday of June, young and fresh college Y members gathered in a lecture room for the College Y Community Program. The College Y Community Program encouraged members to have a vocation and actively participate in Seoul YWCA. Participants were able to understand Seoul YWCA and establish their identity as College Y members.
Everyone in the lecture room was watching a PowerPoint presentation on the introduction of Seoul YWCA and College Y. “Seoul YWCA is an abbreviation for Young Women’s Christian Association and it was founded by the "new women" in 1922.” For the members who do not know about YWCA, a program instructor introduced the history of Seoul YWCA, its organization, and ongoing projects, giving fun quizzes. When the instructor explained the three focused projects in 2010 and the annual events, the participants could not only understand the role of Seoul YWCA as a Christian advocacy group but also feel confident and responsible as College Y members.
After the introduction of Seoul YWCA, the participants had recreational activities to become friends. One by one, they introduced themselves using a ‘key word’ and answered questions. “A ‘frog’ would be my ‘keyword.’ My name is Baek, Woo-Lim, and it sounds like ‘Gaegoori (a frog in Korean)’ when you talk fast.” “People tell me that I look like Kim, Yeong-Chul, the comedian. Do I really?” Students who talk about weaknesses and actively ask questions portrayed their passion and the positive future of Seoul YWCA.
Then, there was a training session for finding one’s vision. Participants wrote down their vision and dream, set goals, divided time, and listened to the advice and millionaires’ key to success (self-discipline, honesty, and intimate friendship).
Although they are basically same with other college students who live competitively to build up career and social experience, College Y members are the future of Seoul YWCA trying to realize not only their own dreams but also Seoul YWCA's vision. Seoul YWCA expects them to put their love and sharing into action.
