An island of quiet in a week's hectic noise
Nobue Yamashita, consultant to Wa-Shin-An, demonstrates the traditional
Japanese tea ceremony for students every Thursday in Eliot House. "The ceremony
is Japanese, but the idea of taking tea in a quiet atmosphere is universal,"
Yamashita says. "At least once before graduating, I recommend that every
student sit in the Japanese Tea House, quietly listening to the sound of
water boiling in an iron kettle."
