Summary Note

At the end of his first seminar class in 1962, Kenneth took the class of sixty to meet the President, John F. Kennedy. They were to travel by bus, and after some trouble, arrived on time. The President, briskly reading the memorandum on the seminar, gave what Kenneth describes as a quite brilliant blurb on the matter, quite impromtu and impressive. Kenneth says it was quite a unique experience, and the class was quite thrilled. (Length 2:42)
