title: Toward the second stage of recovery from the 3.11 Tohoku Earthquake.
abstract: Nearly 2 months have passed since the 3.11 Tohoku Earthquake. In central Sendai, where Tohoku University is located, life is slowly returning back to normal, at least on the surface. However, just a few kilometers away, where the tsunami washed away an entire town, wreckage still litters the coast. The second stage of recovering from the disaster has begun. What can we do to revive universities and communities in the affected areas?
