0. Reischauer, one of America's
most famous diplomats.
Reischauer, one of many great 3
men to be on campus for the
Voices of Civilization program,
has an impressive record of sere -
ice to America and is known as
one of America's finest educator;:
Reischauer served as ambassa
dor to Japan from 1961 to 1966,
when he resigned to accept a
university professorship at Har-
vard, thus terminating one of
the most notable tenures of ser-
ice in the history of Americ a
diplomacy. He is easily the most
familiar American in Japan, andr
is held in high esteem there.
Perhaps the most appropriate
analysis of Reischauer's achieve-
ment is that by Robert Ward, the
director of the Center for Jap-
anese Studies, professor of politi-
cal science, and an old friend of!
Reischauer's:
