Heresy Charges. The imprimatur is no guarantee that a book will not be attacked as heretical. Last year Bishop Joyce granted Sheed & Ward an imprimatur for Jesuit Biblical Scholar John L.

Waseda's tough-minded, politically oriented students tend to get first crack at jobs in journalism, while Hitotsubashi is strong on languages and produces many economists. Also good in language-training are Jesuit-run Sophia and the Protestant-supported International Christian University. Except for a dozen top schools that compare favorably in academic quality with the best in the U.S., most of Tokyo's universities are underfinanced, lecture-oriented schools that offer an undistinguished faculty and curriculum...
