  (transcript of a talk given by Prof.~Feshbach:) Nuclear physics has been and
will be a major factor in science and technology. It makes unique and important
contributions to medicine, to industry and to other sciences. Interaction with
other physics has been strong. Astrophysics and mesoscopic physics are notable
examples. But what I shall talk about today are labeled {\bf``universals"}.
This refers to results which transcend the limits of a given subject providing
fundamental principles which inform not only nuclear physics but all of
science. It is the universals which take nuclear physics research from the
parochial albeit fascinating studies of nuclear reactions and structure to the
development and formulation of concepts of significance for all of the physical
sciences.
