In 1957, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his international achievements. " Let us give the student a faith, a sense of mission, an understanding of social and moral values Above all, education, especially at a university such as ours, must be based on a belief in something deeper and higher than oneself, whatever it may be called Misunderstanding arising from ignorance breeds fear, and fear remains the greatest enemy of peace. Educated persons will place the desire to put muscle in to missiles below the desire to put dignity and decency into living; moral values into action; beauty into words or images. They will put the search for the good life in peace and freedom above every other search. " Lester B. Pearson, Vic 1T9
