	A Rudenstine Retrospective
		An essential ingredient in Rudenstine's effort to stitch the University together, academically and administratively, was his hands-on approach to learning about diverse fields of knowledge, their individual quirks and contours, and the boundary areas where one part of Harvard might touch another.
		Rudenstine's campaign plan envisioned issues "beyond the question of how many students to accept from other countries, or how many students to send abroad." He foresaw engaging with the "complex interactions" of global trade, climate change, the spread of diseases, ethnic conflicts, and new roles for women in diverse societies.
		Rudenstine's sweeping focus on the institution's interests over the long run, in light of its research and teaching mission, is of a piece with his adherence to certain principles underlying its pursuit of that mission.

		Policy was set by Rudenstine and his Council of Deans, which monitored the talks more closely than in 1989, and the anti-Dunlop deans demanded a hold-the-line policy that gave the negotiators little room to maneuver.
		After extended consultations, Rudenstine and his deans and administrators issued a public statement reaffirming Harvard's commitment to the philosophy of participation expressed in the 1989 HUCTW agreement and expressing strong support for the "innovative and unique" relationship that had developed at Harvard.
		Rudenstine and most of the deans also remained aloof from the union, dealing with Rondeau and other HUCTW leaders through administrators rather than on a personal basis.

		Neil L. Rudenstine, whose service as Harvard's twenty-sixth president began July 1, 1991, announced on May 22 that he would step down at the end of the next academic year.
		Rudenstine perceived both "ignorance" and "a devastating blindness" personally and in society; ringingly made the case for Afro-American scholarship; and ended by asserting that "Harvard will continue to take ethnicity and race into account, along with many other factors, as it admits students."
		In the meantime, even as he deflected questions about his postpresidential plans, Rudenstine promised "a full and fruitful year ahead." Among other goals, he hopes to advance planning for the Arts and Sciences-based center for international and regional studies and a significant new art museum.

		Rudenstine concludes that it would be too "time consuming" to initiate any further research into a living wage policy.

	The Educator
		Though my most frequent contact with Neil Rudenstine has been in our mutual pursuit of a successful University Campaign, my first and still dominant impression is of an educator with a love for teaching who also has a natural and productive flair for administration.
		It was Neil who believed so firmly in the goal that he could deliver the intellectual argument with his special brand of charm.
		Its lasting contribution will be how Neil Rudenstine used it to reinforce his vision--of a unified institution newly vitalized by reorganization, by student and faculty composition and performance, and by an involved, informed, and integrated alumni and alumnae group.

		While former President Neil Rudenstine spoke out on the national stage in measured ways, some at Harvard have said they hope that Summers could do so more vocally and more often.
		Summers was one of seven university presidents in town for an event sponsored by the Science Coalition, an organization of research institutions that lobbies for increased science funding.
		Rudenstine had attended similar events in the past, but according to Director of Federal and State Relations Kevin M. Casey, the early timing of Summers' first visit was symbolic of the attention the new president will pay to Washington affairs.

		Rudenstine was a wilting professor of Renaissance literature who proved to be an almost uncanny fund-raiser.
		The adjective Bradley uses to describe him is "deferential," and for the president of Harvard, Rudenstine cut an almost absurdly humble figure, composing longhand thank-you notes on the slightest pretext.
		"Neil Rudenstine was an aspiring socialite from the working classes," Bradley quotes Martin Peretz as saying.) In 1994, an overstretched Rudenstine suffered what appears to have been a mild nervous breakdown, and for about three months he disappeared entirely.
