Henry A. Kissinger '50 returned to Harvard yesterday to address a select group of twelve former students and colleagues at the Program for Science and International Affairs (PSIA).
Albert Carnesale, associate director of the PSIA who was present at the Kissinger talk, said Kissinger spoke informally for about two hours on "what kind of turns arms limitation might take in the 1980s."
Joseph J. Kruzel, a former advisor to the SALT talks and an ex-Kissinger student who also heard Kissinger speak, called the Secretary of State's performance "dazzling." He said Kissinger spoke of his own work in the 1950s in arms control that eventually led to SALT.
"Kissinger centered on the intellectual effort that academics must make in order to control arms proliferation," Kruzel said.
Kruzel remarked that the atmosphere "was very respectful," and that no one asked "the hard questions, the 'devil's advocate' questions." He said Kissinger made no mention of returning to Harvard on a permanent basis.
The PSIA grew out of the Arms Control Seminar Kissinger began here in the '50s.
